Soooooo it's been awhile since we posted anything last. Our summer has really been busy. Ethan did GREAT at Teeball and is now in soccer for Miami East. He is now swimming without any help and even jumps in the deep end with arm floats on. A huge improvement in such a short time. Alek is our little ham. He has a temper that can drive anyone crazy yet can be overly sweet and loving which makes you want to hug and kiss on him forever. He too has taken to the pool this year and may be swimming by the end of the season if he'd just let us put a float on him or let us stick him in a life jacket. TALK ABOUT INDEPENDENT!!!!!! I will post pictures once I have them downloaded so that you can see how big our heethens are getting. Til next time, (hopefully not another 3 mos.)

Kindergarten already!???!!
Well we took Ethan for his Kindergarten assessment yesterday.
First off I can't believe that it is already time for that! I mean seriously where have the past five years gone?
He did great! As for me, I'm not so sure! I was talking with another parent and we were laughing at our selves and a tear squeaked out of my eye! I mean seriously, how ridiculous is that! So we just kept laughing and crying all at the same time (thanks Heather for being there doing the same thing with me)!
But the best part of it all was that once they were finished, Erik and I were asking Ethan what they asked him to do. And of course, Ethan being himself, replied "I don't know mom, just a bunch of junk." So to all of you Kindergarten parents out there apparently the Kindergarten assessment is nothing but a "bunch of junk," according to a five year old.
I am so excited yet sad all at the same time. Only a couple of months and our baby will be starting Kindergarten!

Old New Stuff
Well a lot has happened since we posted last...and yes we know we are probably the worst bloggers ever! But the trip to Disney World with the boys was truly "Magical" and we are going back! As for the running thing, well I finished and wasn't picked up by the sag waggon!
The next 6 weeks should prove to be interesting though. I just signed up for the Warrior Dash in Chicago. I figured that I needed another goal to work towards since I was in the vacation depression (for oh so long) after we got back. And I think a little more self torture out on the trail is just what the doc ordered! So wish us well and hopefully one of us will remember to post a little more often!
