Kate July 2011

Kate and Sadie (5) on our patio drawing with chalk.  She loves to play with other kids and misses her prek friends so much!  She will be doing a week of summer camp which she is so psyched about (and maybe I am too...).

 Kate's fav place: the carousel at the Frog Pond on Boston Common.  We have only been 2x this summer but she is just so happy to go at all. I have been feeling very guilty about not doing as much as we did last summer.   But, I find that if we do too much, I get run down and housework, etc gets so out of control so fast.  I am exhausted after a long day out.  Having 2 is just hard.  "Next summer will be better" is my mantra presently. For now, we are keeping it more local (bike path, our park) and only going somewhere 'special' once a week or so.

Nate's mom is the photographer who did the prek pics this year, so she hung up pics of all of the kids who came to the party. Cool idea
A cab like Uncle Jake drives


New fav snack: Cherries! Loves to pit them with her "cherry chomper"
