Mackenzie loves dance class as well. She cannot wait for the door to open so she can try to run in and play with the big girls. It is so fun.

Summer Dance Class
Samantha has had such fun at dance this summer. Here is a video of class one day. There is no music because I was outside of the room. I am going to learn how to add music here and hopefully that will help some (once I learn how).

Progress Made
We actually made some progress on the bathroom this weekend. It is about an hour's work from being able to prime the walls. Yeah! Really hoping to get that hour in tonight. Then tomorrow I can prime the walls. And who knows maybe by this weekend we can actually shower in there! I'll post pics once it is painted. We still have to order some finish trim stuff, and I'll post final pictures when that is here and installed. Yeah!
Progress in the girls world- because honestly they don't care about our bathroom that much.
Mackenzie- Her little personality is blossoming so much the past few weeks. She has cut one of her molars (PTL it wasn't too painful), and she has figured out her own little laugh. It is very cute. She loves being outside (which the mosquitos also like) and enjoys playing with big sis. Her attention span has grown this past week because now she can sit and play blocks for about 15 min. uninterrupted. Great for mom!
Samantha- Wow, she can swim like a fish. She just jumps in and goes. Each week she is improving on her form. Last weekend she was swimming and jumping in. She started naming her jumps- "holding the baby", "twirly twister", and "super cheese ball" were the ones she liked the most. Cracks us up with the things she is doing. She is also reading better each day. I thought she was just memorizing stories until one day she climbed in my lap and read my book to me. I can tell she is going to keep me on my toes.
All in all the 4th of July weekend went well. We were busy here and there, but had a good time.

Catching up
Well, it feels like forever since I added anyting here. We have been busy. The bathroom is still not finished, but hopefully with the long weekend coming we can finish up some of it. I'll post pics if we get any farther.
I turned 29 a few days ago and it was a wonderful bday. I was actually really relaxed. I have entered into another half marathon. I am just getting started on my training. It is in Vancouver, WA in October, so I am looking forward to the trip. Jeff is coming with me and it will be our first trip alone since Mackenzie was born.
Samantha started dance at the beginning of June and loves it. She is doing ballet and tap. Her favorite part her first day was "making thunder" with the tap shoes. It is a great class she is one of four girls and is loving it. Samantha is swimming like a fish too. She just puts her goggles on and jumps in. It is a little frightening, but each week she is getting better.
Mackenzie is communicating with a few words and a few signs. She found a pacifier the other day (and she is strictly a thumb girl) and she has been going around with it in her mouth upside down. If I get a pic I'll come back and post it. She is so funny. She thinks it is for her baby doll, but gets mad that the baby doesn't keep it in her mouth. Mackenzie is getting so big. It is hard to believe sometimes.
Love to all.
