Wow, we made it thru our first week of summer vacation. I wasn't sure we'd make it. The kids did a TON of bugging each other and whining. I'm trying to get them in some sort of schedule. I feel like once we get in a groove things will be a lot better.
My plan is to do homework and clean in the morning. Then we can have fun in the afternoon. The kids have been really good at helping me clean. Jack even cleaned the bathroom floor and toilet today. Adam is good at picking up and Maya is good at sorting laundry. I'm hoping that they realized if we keep up with our chores we will have more fun for the day.
I took Maya to Sweet and Sassy this weekend for her reward since she is now a bike rider! She got her hair braided with a fancy bow and LOTS of glitter hairspray. She then had a full pedicure. Her friend Sophie met us there and had her hair and nails done, too.
Maya is now on the Mini Star team at gymnastics. Her instructor asked her to be on the team several months ago, but with school schedules the time didn't work for us. She's going to be in the class for the summer then we will see if she can do it when school starts. It's an hour long vs. her other class that was 45 mins. She will also now be working on more tumbling stuff and using the bars and beams. So far she loves it.
