Summer is here!

June 3 was the last day of school for Ethan. Now the boys get to spend way too much time together! I am doing something new this summer- homework! I know- I am so mean! But Ethan had such a rough year and I want him to be ahead of the game just a bit when he starts 5th grade. Other than that, we aren't doing a whole - lot this summer, Cameron will do swim lessons, Ethan will do karate, and I am not sure if I am going to do mommy and me swim with Sloane or not. I think we will just spend alot of time at the gym, since all the kids' neighborhood friends will be at bible school during the day anyway so there isn't alot to do around the 'hood!
In July, I have been asked to teach 1 class to our church on Japanese! They are learning about different countries every week as well as the language, songs they sing, and religions in that country. I am really excited about this! I think I am going to teach them to sing the alphabet and maybe write their names in Japanese. Yeah!
Other than that- Sloane is doing GREAT with potty training. I have not put ANY effort into it at all, she does it all on her own. She wears a pullup to bed at night and strips naked as soon as she wakes up. She uses the potty when she needs to and I put a pullup on her for her nap, which she again promptly takes off when she wakes up. She is naked all.the.time. My boys loved being naked but they would tolerate clothes at least and she doesn't. she really only wears clothes at bed and nap time- it is hard to dress her if we have to go somewhere and then she tries to take her stuff off in the stores sometimes too! Crazy!

Oh and Big big news......Sloane is weaned! 2 years 2months of breastfeeding her and we are finally done. I didn't think that time would ever come and I have never had either of my boys demand it for so long. It didn't really interrupt our life though so I didn't mind terribly- especially since she was my last baby. I have been having alot of migraines though and I have to be careful with migraine medications and nursing- now I don't have to be so careful and hopefully I can find something to finally get rid of these migraines! Yeah!
