Summer Break - Day 1

No, I won't be updating our blog daily, but as I was putting the kids in bed I decided that a quick post might be fun.

So our day started with Grady waking up at 6:25am, a new record for him. He was ready and waiting when Emry got up.

At 8:45am the two children that I am babysitting this summer arrived. Kent left for the day. He met with several people to try and get his work and insurance figured out.

The kids were with us till 4:45. This time included playing in the sand box, changing the baby's diapers, fixing lunch for three very hungry kiddos, and feeding three bottles to the baby.

When Emry left at noon, Grady was beside himself. However, he was the only one that could make the baby laugh. It was so precious.


The best part of the day came around 4:45 when Grady asked Kent to take his training wheels off his bike. He's been asking for a few weeks but we wanted to wait till we returned to Bluffton. Well as it turns out, Grady needed no help. Kent was trying to help him and Grady asked him to let go and off he went. In five minutes he was riding his bike like he had been doing it for months. It was a very exciting moment for us. Grady is pretty excited too! (Even though it doesn't look like it in this picture. We just told him that he had to come in for supper.)


After our first supper in our basement, we split ways. Kent stayed to help Kyle put a new dryer in, since the old one stopped working today. I went out to my mom's house to get our car out of storage. However, I got 50 yards from her drive way and it quick. I did get it started to get it back in her lane, and it quick again. So now we have to figure out what's wrong with our car and how to get it fix.

Pretty eventful day. I think tomorrow we'll just practice bike riding some more.
