Bad Blogger

Ok, I know... I'm a bad blogger. It's been quite some time since my last post, but I have good excuses! I have been super busy with the soccer shoot I did, which is now finally coming to an end. A few more teams to mail out and I'll be done. Thank goodness! It turned out to be much more then I bargained for. I wouldn't mind doing it again, but maybe next year instead of next season!

So, of course summer vacation is upon us. The kids have been having lots of fun swimming in the pool every day. And just to prove that we do allow them to use it, and not keep it all to ourselves....

Ashlyn's Tan!!


In a couple weeks they will both be going to camp. They are also looking forward to seeing Uncle Shawn, PaPa, and Grandma! As are we, of course. :)

Rob has been keeping busy on the house. He finished my studio (will have photos of that posted soon on the house blog), hung a couple new doors, and started working on the utility room. And now, for the next few days, work will have him busy outside the country.

MORE ON THE KIDS

Both kids had their yearly checkups and eye exams before school let out. They are both healthy and doing fine.

Ashlyn's eye exam showed that her prescription changed so she needed new glasses. These are the 2 pairs that she chose to get.....

Red Glasses


Purple Glasses


And Ethan's eye exam showed that he needs glasses as well. He also chose 2 pairs of glasses, but he would only allow me to photograph him wearing this pair...



His other pair are solid brown in color. I will manage to get a photo of him in those one of these days!

Ashlyn also opted to have a skin tag/mole removed from her face. If you look closely at the above photos you will see a small red spot at the bottom rim of her glasses under her left eye. She had what we believed was a skin tag in that spot for quite some time. As she has gotten older it has grown and kids at school started to tease her. Nothing I said to make her feel better about it, made her feel better. So we went to the Dr. a couple days ago and they took it off for her. The Dr. said due to its size and color she believed it to be a mole, and sent it for testing - just to be on the safe side. Ashlyn was a trooper and didn't flinch or complain about anything. I think she is much happier now that it is gone.
