Weekend Wrap-up

We had a pretty busy, but fun weekend. On Friday, Tyler had his last swim lesson. While he did great at almost all the skills they test him on he still didn't pass. He won't put his ears in the water when he floats on his back or his nose in when he floats on his tummy. These have always been issues for Tyler so we weren't surprised and Tyler is just as excited to take the class again anyway. We are thinking we will put both the boys in together in the fall ans practice lots until then.

When we got back from swimming it was time for Uncle BJ, Aunt Abbi, Toby, and Norah to come over along with a bunch of other friends. We had a big bbq and all the kids got to play outside. They played well for the most part, but for the part of the time it seemed like at leCheck Spellingast one kid was constantly crying. Once that half hour or so was done all the kids started playing nice again.

On Saturday I had Melissa's baby shower so the boys went and helped Steve start moving things to their garage (they are moving to Denver). Tyler was a big help, but Carter did his usual "that's to heavy for me, I am too little" act. Once I got there we grabbed some dinner and headed home. That night we had more people over for games. The boys were very well behaved considering they didn't have naps all day.

On Sunday morning we got a call from the Stillmans letting us know Steve's grandpa had died so they needed to move that day. Once again the boys did a great job. They stayed out of everyone's way by cleaning our van (or the school bus as the boys would tell you) up with baby wipes or eating snacks with Melissa. They spent their naps in the car as well as we were unloading. It was a very busy weekend but I couldn't have asked for better behavior from my boys.
