Sorry for the delay in the updates. We’ve been busy trying to sell our house and getting things ready for the new house. Jacob finished 1st grade and is enjoying summer vacation even though the weather hasn’t been cooperating. Soccer and swimming are also done for the year. Jacob really started to come around in soccer this spring. In his last game he scored 2 goals. He was so excited. And I was very proud of him. He really enjoyed swimming lessons again this year. The only bad part was, he didn’t pass level two. I guess we’ll just have to try again in the fall. Hopefully he’ll pass. He just started baseball this week. But because of the nice rainy weather he only had practice on Wednesday. He was really excited about it. Hopefully he likes it. This is his first year playing so I told him to just try as hard as he could. The 1st and 2nd graders are put on teams together so some of the kids have been playing for a few years. I told him we’ll have to practice.

Little Miss MaKena is grown like a weed. She’s 5 ½ months, almost 6 months. I can’t believe how fast it has gone. She is doing so many new things, I just love it. Lane thinks she’s going to start crawling soon. I don’t think so but who knows! She’ll roll over on to her tummy and then she’ll stretch her arms out and kicks her legs up. It looks like she’s flying. She is so goofy. She loves to play in her jumper and her exersaucer. When she sits in her bouncy chair she just kicks and kicks her feet. I have a feeling once she figures out how to work those legs it’s going to be go, go, go. A couple weeks ago we put her in the grass for the first time. I don’t think she really enjoyed it, maybe in a few months. Her next doctor appointment is on June 23rd. After that I believe we can start her on baby food. I’m excited to see how she does. She’s been such a good baby. She's a good sleeper, she eats well and is normally a very happy baby. You can tell when she is getting tired as she starts to get fussy. At night we feed her and then just lay her in her crib and she falls asleep. I love it! We are very blessed with two wonderful children.
