This is my summer

I have been dreading Andrews last day of school. I know I only have one kid in school for 3.5 hours a day, but to be able to go do errands, or shop, with only 2 kids instead of all 3, is so much easier. I always used Andrews school time to be out somewhere, whether it be Safeway, Costco, the mall, or any other of my favorite stores. I am a shopper, and would really like to go at least somewhere everyday. So, thinking about having all three kids home all day was really getting me worried. (I know I am a big baby compared to some of you out there with more kids!) Anyway, I am slowly but surely getting used to this 3rd kid thing. Another part to my worry, was swimming. I wasn't sure how it was going to go now having Bailey. Andrew has only been out of school for 1 week now, and we have been swimming almost every day. Andrew is a good swimmer now, so he can go in the big pool all by himself. My community pool has a toddler pool which is where Josh swims all by himself, and Bailey and I get to sit on the side in the shade. It has worked out perfectly. So I can tell this is going to be my main activity for the summer. Ashley H. has been with us and the boys have a great time, and of course it is a lot more fun for the moms too!

We need to get one of these tube, raft things, they had a great time playing with these older boys in theirs.

Isn't this the cutest picture of Bailey? I love her face.

One of me and Bailey. She is only 4 months old, but already we have slowed down in our picture taking. I hope all of you were swimming this week too. It was too hot to do anything else!

New Post for.....

I know that I have not had a new post in a while, but I just didn't have any new pictures on the computer yet and nothing too exciting had been going on. Anyway, so yesterday I get a phone call. I look at the caller id, it says the Hiltons are calling me. Obviously I expect it to be Michelle. I pick up and say hello and a little voice says, hello? I say, is this Caleb, and he says yes. So then I proceed to ask him all the questions I can think to ask Caleb about his day. After I run out of my normal questions to ask 4 year olds, I pause for a second, trying to come up with another one. And Caleb says..... WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO CHANGE YOUR BLOG???? I started cracking up. Up until this point I had assumed he was calling to say can I play with Andrew tomorrow, or something of that nature. It was hilarious. So this post is for CALEB HILTON! He is one of my favorite kids.


Andrew is now officially a first grader. Last week he was in a kindergarten program which was so cute. This is his teacher Mrs. Dean. She was a great teacher for Andrew. I am so thankful that he had her. Maybe Caleb will have her next year!

The kids sang What a Wonderful World. I knew they were going to sing this song because I had heard Andrew practicing at home in the bathroom. They all drew pictures to represent a few of the words of the song.

This is just a random picture to throw in . Our trees have not been trimmed in a few years and are huge! The tree outside Baileys room has been scratching on her window. So yesterday Tobi decided that he was going to go trim it off. I love having a husband that can do that outside and inside handy stuff. Don't you love Josh with his "noculars?" And don't worry, the saw was not plugged in.

Thanks Caleb for encouraging me to change my post! I hope you liked the pictures.
