Busier Than It Seems


The only decent photo I got while camping...spent most of my time trying to make sure Kiffer didn't escape to the lake or parking lot. Kiffer and his friend "smiling" for the camera...all bundled up as it got cold over night. Kiffer woke up and immediately asked to "play with the kids". That's all he cared about! Seems he forgives easily...the night before the big kids (11 years old for crying out loud!) had been trying to steal his glow sticks.

Jelly Bean School was at our house this last week. There are 5 boys (2-3 years old) in our group. We "studied" the ocean (animals)...do you know how funny it is to hear a 2.5 year old say "sea star"? Hilarious! Mostly they enjoyed eating the goldfish and gluing eyes on the jellyfish finger puppets. They also spent a great deal of time in the sandbox...and now most of the sand is on the patio! Naturally. Kiffer had some trouble sharing his toys. Hope it goes better for him when he's at someone else's house.

We also started Parachute Play and Tumble this last week. Kiffer is one of the oldest and certainly the most energetic. It's a parent-child class...which means I get a work-out, too. While he doesn't like to follow the circuit so well (gymnastics course)...he does like the dancing/singing and the teacher.

Steve starts school this week...finally! He has orientation tomorrow and starts classes on Wednesday. As much I've loved having him home 24-7 for the last 3+ months, we're ready. We need a schedule!
