Colegrove Blog: June 2010

Well, it's only been 5 months since my last post. What's been happening with us? Well, M and G switched to a new daycare center in March, but are now home with Mom for the summer:) The new center has proven to be a great switch for the kids because they are surrounded by many more friends and have a more "set" curriculum. However, with more "friends" comes more germs. Greyson had about a 2 month long ear infection that we could not get rid of. June 1st, he had tubes put in. He's doing great! I can't believe I'm seeing my kid without a runny nose! It's amazing how his speech picked up after tubes. He's saying tons of words and will attempt anything we ask him to say. Some common words at this moment are: need up, Frazier, sissy, Jesus, scared, sit, bite, "tinkle, tinkle, little star," (and then what comes out in his next line is the tune of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" but a mixture of his own sounds.

So far this summer we've been to the park many times, the splash park here in town, Prairie Meadows to see and pet the horses, and today we attempted (in the rain) to go to Macy's very 1st private swimming lesson, but when we got there we learned it had been cancelled. We'll be trying again tomorrow. Macy told me this morning that she couldn't wait to jump in the pool and swim like a "fish." She loves the water and we don't need any more rain!!!
