Summer Fun





It's been a fun and busy summer so far. Lindsey was here to visit with Claire and Ashton. Jacob and Ashton are about 4 weeks apart so we know they will be lifelong friends. I know we all wished that Keith had been able to make the trip with his family, but it was so nice to catch up with Lindsey, albeit crazy with 4 children under 2.5 in the house! We also started our remodeling of the bathroom while Lindsey was here. I can't wait to pose pictures of the finished project!! I spent one day working on the 6th grade reading curriculum and am going to be teaching summer school for Liz the last week this month. Tomorrow we are headed to Chanute to see my brother and to meet his fiance for the first time! Crazy! Then the last week in June I will be teaching summer school for Liz. Before I know it the summer will be over!
In other news, Jacob is starting to look more like himself. He still looks an awful lot like Joel but he definetly has his own features and personality. His first smile brought me to tears. He is a very cuddly baby and a great sleeper now that his nights and days are right. He sleeps from about 10 until 3 every night and then wakes up at 5 or 6 and then will sleep until about 8 0r 9. Justin has been entertaining Joel in the mornings that he wakes up early so that we can sleep in a little bit. Having 2 is definetely more work but soon it will be less when they can play and entertain each other. They grow up so fast!
