We're all looking forward to the new pace of summer, which begins next Wednesday, the first day school is out. Of course, the older boys' school work has waned considerably already.
My camera cord is missing. I don't seem to be able to blog without photos. I've ordered a new one from ebay, so in a few days, get ready for a flood of updates. Briefly, though...

K: nursing less (plugged duct/infection to show for that), talking more, daddy-love all the time, can spend long periods at the kitchen sink playing, never forgets his vitamin.

Unlike in the picture, Jeremiah was serious on the field. His team won first place in their division for the league this spring.
Now, his focus is on swimming, pick-up soccer in the evenings, an upcoming 11th birthday, and some organized activities - soccer camp, Summer Strings (band camp), and possibly a regular sports and crafts day camp in August.
He had the opportunity to go to KI with K, T and the cousins, and will probably do that again a few more times this summer.
In preparation for school in the fall, he's spending time every day on multiplication/division memorization, hand writing, and as always he's in the middle of a novel (The People of Sparks).

Someone's four years old now! We had a very low-key celebration in the midst of pre-moving business and box towers. Ryan created his own birthday hat and enjoyed the singing and cake as much as ever, as always.
tomato sauce mess (and a boy signing "more")
Attitude (and a little eyebrow modification)
and smarts.
JJ has been drawing maps and memorizing Canada
Ryan has been doing a lot of drawing.
and imaginary play

My blogging is badly behind. I have so many unposted photos and updates that I'm kind of paralyzed with behind-ness.
Posting a little is better than none, I know, but somehow I can't move on until I can make it complete, which is really silly. So a little is what it will be.
Jamie starts school Tuesday. Today we're meeting with his teachers. Well, he's meeting with them.
Evan has a trip to Boston on Wednesday, and our buyers are visiting to plan for their remodeling on that day and the next.
Jeremiah is going to start tumbling and/or another martial arts class soon. I'd like to get him going asap, but it may have to be after the move. He is starting indoor soccer this Saturday.
Ryan is seeming closer and closer to 4, which of course he is. Still no real progress in the potty dept, but he's doing well with things like dressing himself, drawing pictures of people and other things, and his verbal skills continue to develop.
Kellen is talking too, saying a few favorite things - Daddy, Mama, Ryan, ball, boots, water, and also signing milk, water, poop, and no. There are more but I have to rush off now...
