Okay. So if I was more than a sad excuse for a blogger back in April, that must make me a pitiful excuse for a blogger here as June draws to a close. Wow! I have been slacking on the blog for sure. Hope nobody has missed our smiling faces too much. :)
To sum up the last almost three months:
Easter weekend came and went with Jason and the kids making a trip back to Iowa to visit the family! They had a great time - and all came back extremely tired but enjoyed the trip!
Meggan wrapped up her kindergarten year on Wednesday, May 19. It's so hard to believe that our baby girl is officially a first grader now (and she'll remind you of that quite frequently)! She got her teacher assignment for next year and will be in Mr. Hamilton's class. She's very excited about it (he's really funny is what she likes to tell you) - and I will be very interested to see how she does in a class with a male teacher. Not that that's a bad thing at all ... just not something we've ever experienced. She will do great no matter what. That much I'm sure of! She was a star student in kindergarten - and even ended up winning the big-wheel race at the end of the schoolyear! She was the fastest kid in all of kindergarten, boys and girls included!!! It was fun!
Over the Memorial Day weekend Meggan turned 6 years old. It sounds redundant, I know, but it's hard to believe our baby girl is a 6-year-old. That just SOUNDS so much older than saying she's 5 years old for some reason. She truly even looks older, more like a kid and not a little girl. * sigh *
The first weekend in June brought about Meggan's dance recital. She had a tap dance number and also a ballet dance number. She did a great job and had a really fun time learning a lot in this session of dance class! We were so proud of her!
Jordan is getting ready to turn 3 in September. He is a quick-thinking, fast-running, training wheel bike riding ball of energy that is all boy for sure! And he is so FUN! Our little boy is growing up right before our eyes, and it's hard to think that he'll be a 3-year-old soon. He can ride that little training wheel bike with the best of them - and just can't get enough!
We had a blessed winter season where Jordan wasn't sick at all. We had to give him his breathing treatments maybe a handful of times from November to March if he happened to start a little cough that sounded a little tight - but he wasn't at the doctor's office at all and it was so GREAT! I have never been more thankful for anything probably in my life!
The kids are both enjoying the summer and the swimming pool! It's so fun to watch them enjoy the water and have fun jumping in and paddling around! Looks like Mommy needs to start giving a few "private" swimming lessons soon... :)
I turned 30 years old yesterday. I'm truly okay with that - 30 really is just a number; right? I'm thinking my 30's will be pretty great!
All else is going well here in Indy! Life is good and we can't complain a bit.
