A quiet week here. JB is now big enough to reach doorknobs. He cannot turn the knobs but he loves going around and closing all the doors behind him. He continues to produce lots of sound immitations during speech, but his consistency is still not good (giving 5 variations for the same word in a 30 minute period). She is starting to push him for closer imitation sounds and he does not seem to mind the correction.

B is counting down the days to school. 10 days after today. I was going back through his school box today. He brings home a lot of paper! But neat to see how far he has come when comparing things from the first of the year until now. I am already starting to gather things (math sheets) for him to periodically do throughout the summer. It is so hard to get him into homework, I certainly don't want him to stop cold for 3 months. I have presented a Fun Run idea to the PTC at the school. Looks like I am chairing it up so lots to work on this summer. Excited though to be a part of a new, never tried before, fundraiser. B has his official cub scout graduation tonight, so he is soon to be officially a wolf, I think.

We recently bought an older Toyota Corolla so JR can get to and from the bus stop in the summer (no more taking him at 7am). I really like the little car but feel like I am in a go cart! The boys love riding in it because they can roll down their windows. When we go through a drive thru, they fight over who gets to sit behind me so they can roll their window down and get the food. Today I mentioned the trunk and they both said 'what is a trunk'. That is about like kids not knowing what a pay phone is.
