Summer

Summer so far is going so great. After a few rough days of adjusting to a new routine we are rolling along and enjoying our lazy days. So we don't have activities going on this summer. We are spending most of our days at home, just the way I like it. I know it won't be very long before my kids will be off to camps and hanging out with friends in the summer so I am so happy to see them playing together. I love watching them making forts and they have made a store in our shed. They spend hours making products for their store, and there are signs all over the house advertising the store. The kids have out camping stuff and go camping and of course lots of family. We are eating mostly watermelon and ice cream and naturally swimming every day. 

Spencer has decided he likes his float for small increments of time. The kids take turn pulling him around the pool and he smiles and laughs. But mostly he plays outside the gate and climbs on the slides and plays with the toys. 

Camilla has learned to ride her bike without training wheels, like good. When the kids reach this milestone they get to go on a date with dad bike riding to the store and picking out a special treat. 

Helping us at their store. 

Of course lots of dress up and watching American Ninja Warrior. Camilla does not like princesses anymore - so she says, she is only into super heroes. 

Our scary monster. 

Putting on dance performances. 

Carson went to a really fun bike camp. He got to ride the trails around Austin and swim at fun spots like Barton Springs and Deep Eddy. Every day they also stopped at fun places for ice cream and smoothies. He was worn out every day that we picked him up. 

Lazy mornings with late breakfast. Everyone is sleeping in over here. 

One day when we picked up Carson we went to a splash pad down town. The kids had a total blast and Spencer was in heaven. 

The girls played in the sand and after I told Brookey that I couldn't push her on the swing because I needed to stay with Spencer, I found this scene. 

Big sister to the rescue. 

We have been going to fun pools, the kids love the pool at the gym and Brooke has just taken off. She is a little fish swimming all over the place. I think this is going to be a great summer.
