It's September? How did that happen? I feel like we did so much yet there was not enough time to do all that we wanted to do.
We enjoyed our time at the beaches, Bowers, to Lewes, to Sea Isle, to Nags Head and especially enjoyed the company of family and friends.
Alek and Maks had a great summer at school traveling "around the world". Each week was a new country to learn about and Alek thought it was pretty neat the week they were in Russia! The trip began and ended with an Alex's Lemonade Stand Fundraiser, which I have been trying to convince Alek it is not his name.
Maks has grown alot this summer, his fine motor and gross motor skills have taken off. He has become alot braver, climbing and chasing his brother where ever he goes. He also is alot more happier in the pool,no more tears and has now mastered the belly flop. Hopefully by next summer he will not be afraid of the waves in the ocean. He is progressing very slowly on speech and while he understands everything we say and tell him, you really have to prompt him to say the ten words he does know. But we are getting there and still waiting for that speech appt!
Alek has blossomed as well over the summer. He finally has all his colors right and loves practicing them. He also knows his left from right and likes to tell me which way we are turning while I am driving. Back seat driver already! He also has grown about an inch over the summer and it all seems to be in his feet! he was wearing a 10 1/2 in June and I just bought him 12 cleats for soccer! Mr. Big Foot for sure!
We ended the summer at Pop and Noni's beach house with Joe and Joseph. Alek and Joseph had a blast playing together, Maks just tried to keep up. They had fun playing on the beach, collecting shells and rocks, playing in the pool and really enjoyed their night at the boardwalk and all the rides. It was a nice way to end the summer.
So we say good bye to summer and move onto the fall. Alek started soccer last Sunday by scoring 3 goals and giving me high fives and thumbs up after each one. He really loves playing!
We look forward to a fun fall season with Maks' 2nd birthday party coming up! I am sure there will be several trips to Merrymead for their fall festivites. We have a trip to Baltimore with Grammom and Poppy coming up and will spend a day at the National Aquarium. And of course there is Halloween, I cannot wait to see what Maks thinks of that--walking around and collecting food! he will think he is in heaven!
Still trying to come up with costumes for the boys, but we think we have a good idea!
So good bye to a wonderful summer, it was a blast and we can't wait to see what the Fall brings for our family!
