We officially ended school today, and although the 6:15 wake up time will NOT be missed by any of us, I was a little sad to see the school year come to an end. We have all changed a lot since the beginning of September, and I can't believe that Sabrina is done with Kindergarten and moving on to first grade. She was so sad to leave her friends and teacher at school, and I was equally sad. We came home and busted out the wading pool. I keep thinking that one of these days they are going to catch on that wading pools aren't really that different from taking a bath and demand a larger more exciting pool, but for now, I'm keeping them fooled because it's something to do while Julia naps!
Speaking of my Jelly Bean, she is nearly 9 months old (July 5) and just became mobile this week. It's the beginning of the end, my friends. She loves her sisters, putting things in her mouth, and "dancing" whenever she hears music. We love her crazy hair, bright smile, and baby rolls.
Paul and I spent last weekend in Delaware looking for housing and so far we haven't found anything. I think people hear "three kids" and think "no thank you!" We are still waiting on a few possibilities so hopefully one of those will pan out.
Funny Sister Convo of the Week:
Sabrina was making bracelets and necklaces out of curling ribbon and tape the other day when the following conversation occurred:
Lucy: Sabrina, you are talented at making things.
Sabrina: I know. It is one of my talents.
Lucy: You are a very big maker (everything good to Lucy is "big"...big sister, big kid, big helper)
Sabrina (sincerely): Thank you. And Lucy, you are the best "scribble artist" I know. You know how you scribble instead of draw? You are really good at that!
Other than that, nothing new to report. We are happy, healthy, and hot. (I will never be used to humidity!)
Oh and the laundry basket picture is of Lucy. She got under there and announced, "Look, I'm a turtle in his shell!"
