Elliot - summer is here as the temps are in the 90's and we are loving it!
There was a week break between the end of preschool and the start of summer camp. Summer camp is occurring at your preschool so to you it isn't much different. But there is a different set of kids there, some the same, some different. You were a bit unsure the first week with all of the new faces but you have quickly adapted and are loving it. Essentially, there is less 'curriculum' and more playing outside!
In addition to summer camp, swim lessons have begun again. You have come a long way as you are now willing to out your face in the water and jump off the ledge unassisted.
Sometimes the heat bothers you if we are out in the sun too much. You have inherited my flushed cheeks when warm so you are all about wearing your sunhat and sunglasses.
Funny things you are saying, 'grill' instead of 'girl', 'twinkle' instead of 'wrinkle' i.e. my toes are twinkly from the pool - hehe. And you often say the phrase, "sound like a plan?"
Your daily inquiry questions have changed to, "what day is it today?" then, "where are we going today?" then, "where we going Tuesday, Wednesday, etc."
You are pretty good at remembering the order of the days of the week. And you have 'right' and 'left' down 90% of the time.
You continue to love to jump, frequently making pillow piles upstairs and launching onto them always asking, "watch me k?"
Occasionally you are able to play nice with your sister though honestly there is still a frequent amount of pushing and shoving...sigh.
At least you ask to hold her sometimes which is sweet for about 1.5 mins until you want to throw her off your lap, yikes!
A big deal this month has been your ability to get yourself dressed and undressed. All.by.yourself...you insist. The cross your arms and lift your shirt over your head took a long time to master but you finally have it, yay!
And we have taught you to play Uno and you are way into it. We play several times a day and I am a frequent loser =(
Love you E,
Mommy
