6 Month Summer

Well it does feel like a 6 month long summer, but Audrey just turned 6 months. I can't believe how fast she's growing up.   She has two bottom teeth now, sits up on her own, rolls all over the place, and sounds like she's saying yelling "mama" when she wants me to pick her up.  She had her checkup and shots yesterday and is 15lb 13oz (40%) and 26" (52%).  Cameron seems to take after her daddy and hid in the corner while Audrey got her shots.  Last time she went and stood in the hallway so I guess we're making progress. 

We've been trying to keep busy this summer with trips to the splash park, lots of swimming, and playing with Grant and Gavin.  Cameron is starting to look like she goes to the tanning salon, she's so dark. She can't wait for school to start to have something to do every day.  We've started a chore list and allowance for her which seems to be working most of the time.  Fortunately her favorite chore is cleaning toilets and showers.  She's been working on her reading and writing over the summer and has gotten very good at both.  She read me a regular version of Beauty and the Beast a few days ago and only had help with a couple of words. 

We're heading to San Diego next weekend for Audrey's first road trip. Cameron's a road tripper already and I think Audrey will do fine. She's already used to riding around with me on deliveries, so it shouldn't be too big of a problem hopefully.  Looking forward to getting out of the heat for the weekend and hitting the beach!
