Growing







Desmon hit the 3 month mark this week while Alivia is counting the days until she starts her second year of pre-school. We have all adjusted great with our newest family member (Alivia still a little more sensitive than normal but overall doing well). Our summer has been pretty busy - Twan and I busy working, as usual, Alivia has completed swimming lessons, taken a trip to Indiana with my mom for a family reunion, continued her gymnastics each week, gone to vacation bible school, and now is ready for school. Those of you without kids - let me be your warning of these school supply lists you have to buy for your children to show up with the first day of class. Wow - we need a small loan - clorox wipes, paper towels, germx, crayons, snacks, glue sticks, packing tape, ziploc bags, blah, blah, blah. And not to mention, you will be hit up with every fundraiser you can imagine almost every month they are in school. We are lucky that Alivia enjoys being there so much and has learned a lot in the last year - I'm sure we have another great school year ahead of us. Desmon is in full smiley stage - you just look at him most of the time and he has a full grin right back at you. He is making noises when he can get a word in with his big sister around. Hope you are having a great summer - I'll report back soon.
