Check-in

It’s getting harder to write on a regular basis. We’re all doing well and the day-to-day is pretty routine. It’ll change somewhat once Curly starts his new school in the Fall, but for the most part, everything’s been good. We are just a few days away from our annual week-long (and much-needed) beach vacation. We’ll be sharing a house with Nutella’s parents, and it’s just a couple minutes walk from the sand. We’ll also have some friends visiting for a few days, and are going to have one of the most awesome blogland meet-ups ever 🙂

This morning we had a progress meeting with Curly’s main daycare teacher. He’s doing well – on par in most areas including gross motor, social, language, art and music… a little behind in the area of numbers, letters and fine motor skills. Not surprising to us. We may find he has some future challenges in these areas, but that makes us feel even more relieved that he will be in a Montessori environment and not a traditional school setting where he may end up falling through the cracks. We’ll see what happens. He is basically day-time potty trained now, even to the point of asking when he needs to go, not just being kept on a schedule. Who knew that having him say “I need to poop” would feel just as amazing as “I love you”?

So that’s what’s going on with us. Pictures to come when we’re back from vacation.
