Summer project update

Yes, it is happening. We are making progress. Amazing what a little elbow grease and time with Gramma Chloe and kiddos will create such a fun experience.




















Even the three neighbor boys joined in our fun to fill the containers with dirt.































What is Lexi doing when she is not painting with us. Getting into trouble of course. She was playing with the ducktape instead of the toys.


She had been climbing the ladder to the monkey bars as you saw in my previous log, but coming right back down. She has since then become a daredevil about it and once her feet are on the TOP rung, she jumps to the bars to go across! Fortunately I have been there to catch her, but when I am on the grass painting with Kailey it is all I can do to get up and sprint over to her (she is sooo fast up that ladder!!) to make it to her before she leaps! No amount of time out or scolder deters her. Sooooo, what did mommy do to solve the problem?


Nothing duckdape and a piece of cardboard won't fix : ) No more climbing for you "wild" flower!! That is Kailey's new nick name for her, just "flower" wasn't suitable anymore. It is perfect really.
