Beautiful!

First long hike of the year

It's been so rainy this spring that this is the first long hike of the year. We made pretty good time although we were both tired by the end.

I actually cooked!

Joe was out with a friend so I was on my own for dinner. Granted, the rice and veggies were microwaved, but I cooked it with eggs and soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. It was so yummy!!

Of all the things I reminded him to do at camp, I forgot this one

Right when I see Jonah at camp pickup:

Mommy!  Guess what!  These are the clothes I had on when you dropped me off at camp.  Then I slept in these clothes.  Then I wore them the next day.  Then I slept in them again.  Then I have them on again today!

Ugh.  Of all the places to re-use clothes, summer camp is NOT the place to do it.  And sleeping in the same clothes, yuck!

Jonah has a major issue with changing in front of anyone - even changing his shirt (yet he will wear his bathing suit with no shirt all day long).  I don't get it, but apparently I should have specifically asked for him to find a way to change his clothes privately.  

Letter from camp!

Rapids

Trey and Joe have gone to several Colorado Rapids soccer games this year and always have a great time!

finally tall enough to ride the big slide at the pool!

at least according to the teenager working the front desk last week. I hope the next person doesn't break his heart and say he isn't tall enough!

Summer camp dropoff

Trey starts his first day at summer camp today. I can't believe it! He is there until Friday afternoon. He didn't seem nervous at all - I think he will love it!

Jonah goes on Wednesday for 2 nights.

A mouth FULL of craisans

For about the last 30 minutes

"I am awesome!"

Summertime

On to the next sport…

As long as the weather holds, tonight will be Jonah's first baseball practice. We weren't cleared from the waiting list until after the first week, so he missed a practice and a game. Then the next practice was rained out, so he would've played a game without ever having a practice, but luckily that game was rained out. That could've been a complete disaster! He doesn't really know the rules, and we haven't had much luck so far with Jonah and team sports. He says he wants his position to be batter. And when I told him he has to have a position on the field for when his team is on defense, he said-no… I'm just going to play batter. So interested to see how this goes!

His team color is yellow and the name is the Pirates (like Pittsburgh Pirates!). So I'm hoping that is good luck.

Funny habit

Eli has this funny habit of putting food in his mouth then sucking on it for a very long time-like 10 or 20 minutes long. He does it with his juice plus vitamins, carrots, cheese… Sometimes I'll see he has this funny pursed lips look, then I'll realize he still sucking on something I gave him a while back. When I ask him about it he'll smile then show me what's in his mouth.

This guy was not taking a nap without his Cars shoes!

I snuck in to take a picture of Eli cuddling with his new toys, and apparently he wasn't asleep yet!

Don't even think about touching my new toy
