Summer has finally arrived for this family :) School has officially been out a week, as of today, and slowly but surely, we are adjusting to the change. Aidyn has been keyed up because Nana has been up visiting for the week, but otherwise he will compromise with an afternoon of Animal Planet and DS to help with the pain of the separation caused by her leaving. Caroline is napping currently, but will undoubtedly be up and crying in just a little while. Her right upper front tooth is coming in...slowly. She's uncomfortable and unhappy, especially when not being the object of my attention. Other than trying to bend to her psycho-baby demands, we are getting by with minimal fuss.
On a more somber note, Caroline is crawling like a machine. Why is this a somber note, you ask? Because I am cleaning the floors obsessively. I've vacuumed the house three times a day...and I have hardwood floors with only two area rugs! The kitchen floor has become my arch nemesis. I spot clean, swiffer and then steam mop...after every meal. Truthfully, you'd think the thing would be spotless, but somehow, even after hands and knees scrubbing, it still seems filthy. Grrr. Needless to say, floors are my least favorite cleaning chore. And dishes. And laundry. And bathrooms....notice a pattern here? SAHM was probably not the ideal profession for me to choose :)
I am almost ready to start Aidyn's summer curriculum. I was going to start a little later in the summer, giving him a little breathing room and rest from the school system, but he is bored senseless already, so I'm thinking that just jumping in next week is the best thing to do. We're doing the library's summer reading program, plus our adventure geography program. I think working out a schedule now might make more sense than waiting and it not working best anyways. We'll see :)
