Here we go summer........

We love this time of year!  It seems we spend all winter battling with Caden to stay in the house and find something to do, so it's so great to just open up the sliders and let him run out back!  It's also time for swimming lessons again, which Caden loves oh so dearly!  His teacher is and has been for the last few sessions, Miss Sierra (or Miss Surrrrra as CW says :)).  He does really well and enjoys it.  I feel like it's one of the best things we can enroll him in, to have him learn to swim, and he feels like it's a real treat every Wednesday night, so I guess we're both winning.  He has always done lessons with his girlfriend, Lizzy, so they are two peas in a pod in the pool.  Oh, fun times.  Cousin Izzie is also taking a swimming class the same time as them along with Henry, Lizzy's little bro, so it's lots of fun. 






Avery is changing by the minute.  Jared and I just made the comment the other day that she is suddenly changing so much.  We have officially reached the phases of.........getting mad if she gets something taken away from her that she had.........thinking mommy should hold her when she can see me........rolling to her tummy to sleep a lot......getting really excited when Jared or I come home............all the fun stuff :).  And signs she is in fact turning into her own little personality.  Look out, world, we have another Meyer getting ready to take on the world I guess haha. 

In other news of 'look out world', these two are officially on the sidewalks.  Look out indeed.  Things just got a little more dangerous out there :).  CW was at T's house last week and there was a yard sale down the road.  They wandered down there and found this red Mustang power wheels in mint condition.  Couldn't leave it there!  Luckily Caden was with them, so they in fact really didn't have to leave it there......he was the only one that could drive it home!!  Haha.  It's so fun to see Caden and the Iz together.  They are playing together more and more independent as a twosome day by day.  Of course with that comes the typical happenings of a 3-year-old thinking he is in charge of a one-year-old, and things get a little hairy sometimes.  But it's fun nonetheless.

We found out that Avery will indeed get a helmet.  She gets scanned Wednesday and it will take about ten days to get made.  She also has torticollis in her neck (tightening of muscles on 1 side of her neck), so she starts physical therapy for that Tuesday.  Poor girl!!  Between Avery's appointments and the ones Mommy and Daddy each have these days, things seem to just get wacky-doodley-doo'er by the day, haha. 

Like I always say, hold on tight and enjoy the ride........I don't think this one is slowing down anytime soon :).
