Well it's June already! I can't believe Dallin and Elsa will be out for the summer. Only 4 days left. Elsa's teacher said she could've gotten her ready for the summer program, but she didn't want to push her too much. When Elsa feels pushed she kind of shuts down and doesn't say anything. It's like she talks when she wants to and no one can tell her when or what to say at times. Although she is always listening and learning everything that goes on around her. She is so cute. She says something new everyday.
We decided, after talking with Dallins teacher and principal, that it would be best to keep him going to the 2nd grade and see how he does in the first few weeks and if he is still doing really well then he will go into the 3rd grade class for reading and math. Today, Sunday, he had me teach him how to add and subtract decimals. Then, he wanted me to make up some problems for him to do. He did pretty well. Sometimes I would love to go into that little brain of his and see what he thinks about. Very interesting! Always learning.
Calvin is trying my patience alot lately. Totally testing me. He got out the blocks and promised me that he would put them away when he was finished. Well 2 days later the blocks are still out on the floor. Normally, I would pick them up and take points away for leaving a mess, but I don't want him to think that I'll do it everytime, and he just has to sacrifice a few points. So everyday that he leaves them out he loses 3 points. I'm starting to get impatient and ready to just pick them up so the family room is clean. I think I'll wait until he picks them up. I wouldn't want him to win this little battle. Anyway, he is doing good otherwise. He still is so excited to go to Kindergarten. Everyday is still asks if this is the day he goes. Calvin can be a little pill, (Mom's word), yet on the other hand he can be so sweet.
Abby is 8 months and still no teeth and not crawling. Thats o.k. because when I sit her down to play she stays where I put her. The teeth thing is good too, because I'm still breastfeeding her. She gets cuter by the day.
Clint and I are doing great. We're almost finished with our front yard. It's looking really good. I'll take pictures and put them on the blog later. Clint is still liking his calling. (Elder Quorum President) and I'm still loving being in the primary presidency. So much fun! Well, I better go it is getting late and I'm getting very tired.
