Summer catch up

We have been so busy this summer. Darren has junior golf clinic every year and this year Becca participated. She got her own set of golf clubs for Christmas. We originally have her a pink bag but then realized they couldn't be passed down to Barrett. We convinced her, thankfully, to trade for the red set instead, since both pink and red are her favorite colors. It's a kids set with a driver, iron and putter...all she really needs. I wish I would have gotten pictures but I was usually rushing around the house right before we left. I'll try to take pictures of her golfing with daddy sometime this summer.

The same week as the golf lessons was VBS. I was helping with the craft area and Becca went to the 4-year-old class while Barrett was in the nursery with some lovely ladies that loved on him all week. I always enjoy helping and Becca really enjoys it as well. We actually got there early on Friday morning and one of the teenagers picked Becca to go up on stage and sing the main song with them. Again, I didn't have my camera so my lovely friend took some for me. I'm just sad I didn't get it on video. She knew the motions and didn't mind getting up in front of everybody...it was so cute. The theme this year was "Boomerang Express". Now that I'm blogging about it, that song will probably be in my head for the next day or so...it's kinda catchy.

Last week was Barrett's 6-month checkup; where does the time go? He's growing so fast. The day after the appointment, Barrett decided to start sitting up. He still won't roll from his back to his belly, but he'll sit by himself.

What a big boy!

This week, Becca has been taking swimming lessons. Everyone should know how to swim, plus she doesn't have any fear of anything, including water. There is a lady who is really good with the kids and Becca has had so much fun. Today, she asked if she could go off the board. She also decided to let go of the edge of the pool. She thinks she's so big...we're going to watch her. Luckily, she listens fairly well in the pool, but we may be spending a lot of time in the baby pool if I'm by myself with Barrett.

I think our summer activities are going to really slow down. T-ball is over so there are no more planned activities, we're just going to go with the flow which will be nice, especially since it will just be getting hotter.
