VBS

Vacation Bible School was ok. Neither boy loved it, but it was good enough to get out of the house for a few days.

It seemed like constant dropping off and picking up, but it wasn't any more driving than preschool was all year. I think the difference is we loved preschool, so we thought we would love VBS too since it was at the same church.

Augustine went all week. He liked his teacher - who never introduced herself to me - and loved the songs. You know what's more annoying that Jesus music? Children's Jesus music...and we got a free CD/DVD. Awesome.

Lewis made it three full days, but then he needed a break. He did go the last day but he insisted on staying with Augustine so he was in the 5 year old class. The teachers were awesome about it. He was on my lap for the program at the end. He had no interest in being on stage. Considering this was Lewis' first experience of "school" and being away from me in a new environment, he did fantastic!

"Me wear me goggles, Mommy." Goggles are very necessary to grocery shop.

"Me help Mommy!" He counted out six nuggets for each of us.

"Me making waterfalls." Um...ok.

Two Months Old

Elias is getting very animated these days! He smiles and talks and is even trying to giggle. He can grab the rings on the hanging toys, and he can get his blanket into his mouth after a lot of effort. He loves watching the bird mobile spin and kicks like crazy while he watches it.

Elias is noticing his blanket more and more. It definitely helps him fall asleep if he grabs it or tucks it under his arm. He is currently very happy with the binki too, which is luxurious. I am absolutely thrilled not having to nurse him every time he's upset or needs to sleep.
