Fun Weekend

CAMP WEEKEND:
We spent a glorious few days at camp over the holiday weekend. Too bad the weather wasn't so "glorious." Memorial Day weekend is the annual clean up day and meeting day for our camp association. Jim is tied up for much of the weekend with those two tasks plus he is usually pretty busy cleaning up the yard and preparing to get the boat in the water. This year things were slightly off for us. Our dock got hit by an iceberg and will need to be repaired before we can put the boat in. For now, we just drive down the road to the next bay and launch from there.

My friend came up for the day on Saturday with her two girls. The kids had a fantastic time playing at the beach and around the house. The weather was pretty yucky, but somehow rain storms are just so much fun when at camp! Thanks for coming to visit Julie!! We had a great time. It was total let down when you left- we were so lonesome! Can't wait until you the girls and Shawn can come back. Boat rides and BBQ.

We had a lot of fun with camp neighbors this weekend too. Play dates with the camp kids is always fun. I can't wait to watch all of these "camp kids" grow up together.

I got fried on the boat on Monday. It was the only day that we had constant sun and no threat of storms. I plastered sunscreen on the girls but decided that I didn't need it since we wouldn't be out long. Ha! Not so much. I am now as red as a lobster and in serious pain. Silly me!

We finally got an area rug for under the dining table at camp. I am ordering counter stools tomorrow and we have a few other things to get in order to make life at camp more comfortable. I plan to spend a lot of time there with the girls this summer. I hope to have friends visit with us there too!

The girls were completely exhausted when we got home last night. Neither of them nap when we are at camp. I will have to change that policy when I am there over the summer. They need their sleep! Needless to say, they were super grouchy today and both took a long long nap.

SAWYER:
Sawyer continues to rock the potty training! She is totally trained now. Dry undies at night too! That is what prompted me to start this whole process (besides being sick of diapers). She was continually waking up in the morning with a dry diaper. Less than a week and she was potty trained. She is actually much better at holding it than Sydney. I guess Sydney inherited my bladder!

SYDNEY:
Sydney has been doing really well with her speech therapist. I know we made the right choice for her. I was listening to she and the therapist today as they were chit chatting back and forth. So sweet. She continually talks about her birthday coming up and that she wants a party. I am actually really excited to do something for her. She doesn't ask for much so I think I will go all out in party planning.

ME: I am down 16 lbs. I seem to be at a stand still right now with the weight loss thing, but I certainly feel so much better.

I will download pictures soon and get them posted.
