Well everyone Im a few months behind again but Im back! lol! We have been soooo busy with the kids getting out of school and preparing for baby Jack's arrival. He will be here anyday now. Just waiting on him to decide on when he is going to make his grand arrival! Well Connor did very well last school year and is going on to the 2nd grade in a few days! I cant believe my lil boy is already into the 2nd grade. At the end of 1st grade he got a reading award and a social studies award, he was soooo proud of himself and so was I. The boys have spent plenty of their summer swimming in the pool. They all absolutely love swimming! Connor also turned 7 years old on July 4th! He had a Cars 2 themed party and had a wonderful time. He got alot of new Cars 2 stuff. We had a big cookout and pool party on July 3rd and we went to Carowinds on July 4th. They loved all the fireworks. Dominick started speech therapy for his speech delay. He was suppose to be in it for a year, but after only 8 weeks, Dominick is all done! He has his last session tomorrow. His therapist said he is a very very smart little boy who is eager to learn and catches on very quickly. Im soooo proud of my boy :) In July Nancy and the girls came down and we were sooo happy to see them, since it had been so long. They stayed for 2 weeks and we spent alot of time together and Gabe got to bond with them some more. He really took up to Kayla. He got a cute little sock monkey with an arkansas razorback symbol on its tummy and some new clothes. They also threw me a baby shower where I got some cute and much needed things for baby Jack. Speaking of Gabe, He is getting so big now! He is 19 mos. old, he recently had a check up and was 26 lbs and 32 inches tall! He is talking in complete sentences and is just sooo funny and full of personality. I love that lil boy <3 Oh he is also nearly potty trained, we started only 5 days ago and he does soooo well. He may make about 1 accident a day but other than that he goes to his potty and keeps him big boy pull ups dry :) Again I am such a proud mama! We have been 5 days without a diaper now! We are still working on him using a cup though, he is getting better at it and not wanting his bottle as much but still has to have it sometimes. On a bad note, he has become clingy at night and is not wanting to sleep in his crib, so we hope to solve this problem soon. Connor also had a check up and he was 46 lbs and 47 inches. Still pretty small for his age but at least he's healthy. Ok well I think thats pretty much it for now but I'll be back soon for another update and it will be really soon. Im going to try and post several times per week but we'll see how time lets me :)
