Dylly had his first day of Under the Sea camp. I had to stay with him for the first hour, but, once he was OK with me leaving, he did great. He enjoyed his teachers and all his activities. He said he's excited to go back tomorrow. We'll see what happens in the morning. Today, he made a foil boat, a Two-Tailed Lion, a diagram about water cycles, and he won beads for a bracelet in an ocean themed game.
Dyl and I had lunch with Papa at Mama Fu's. I actually got something new and it was delicious!
This week has been both rushed and easy. Caed has been in rock band camp all week. He is loving it! He's such a talented piano player. Today is the concert for the parents and tomorrow the band has been invited to open a children's fair. Caed is so excited! While Caed's been at camp, the other kids have been swimming or going to a sprinkler park.
I converted Mika's crib to a toddler bed today. She was not happy about it until I showed her that she can now get in and out by herself. That made her really excited. She called Dylan over and showed him and I called Riley over. That was my biggest mistake. As soon as Riley saw her bed, he started crying and telling me to change it back because Mika is still his baby. Riley's reaction made Mika start crying and asking for her baby bed back. Now Mika is telling him that she's still a baby and trying to make Riley happy. Poor Mika. Poor Riley. At least Dylan is excited about the change.
Chad is getting close to finishing school. We are all so excited about the next chapter of his career starting!
We also sold our house today! It's been on the market since September. I am so glad that's finally over!

Today, we all went swimming. It was so nice to have Chad with us. We played in the family pool for 2 hours, then moved to the deeper lap pool. I got Ri to take his swim test, again, and this time he passed enough to go on the water slide. It was so fun hearing him say, "Cowabunga!" before sliding down. We had Subway for dinner and Caed and Riley ate almost a full foot long EACH! My growing boys!
Tomorrow is Caed's first day of Rock Band Camp. His lunch is all packed and ready to go. All I have to do tomorrow morning is get his keyboard in the car and go. I'm so excited for him!

Dylan had bubble gum, but I didn't want Mika to know. Every time Mika would ask Dylan what he had, he would say "Nothing". Finally, Mika got fed up and the next time Dyl said "Nothing", Mika said, "Thats ok, I didn't want to know anyway.". I just about died laughing hearing my sweet almost 3 year old sound just like me! I love that girl!
In other news, Caed got asked to participate in a one week band camp by his theater teacher, Erin. She knows that Caed plays the piano and he's great at making up songs and plays. Caed is so excited! At the end of the week, the kids will perform for all the parents and they have even been invited to open up a kids fair on Saturday. I can't wait to watch Caed on stage! He is such a natural performer. And he loves to be on stage. I absolutely love that boy!
Today is Chad's birthday. I love you Honey! Always and forever!
