We all headed north AGAIN for the fourth of July. Mick, Deb, Ky, Pie, Doc, Malachi and Flower (apparently a beta wont die if you dont bring it on vacation, they can live without food for quite some time, have to remember that next time, a bowl of water doesnt travel too well!) all headed up from A2 on the second and I trailed from Grand Rapids on the 3rd. The kids had a blast at the Gladstone Parade, what kid wouldnt have fun with 4lbs of candy thrown at them for an hour! We spent the first part of the 4th with my cousin Katie, her BF and his adorable girl Kallie who is just a little older than Pie. There was a giant blowup slide that you could pay $5 and slide all day. Turned out it was a waterslide and turned into a comedy show for my mom and I watching Nolan bounce 5 or 6 times down the slide before plumeting into the pool of water at the bottom, I think he had an audience for awhile! The fire works were...well the usual fireworks. Suprisenly the kids werent all that excited about them but did enjoy them. Then Monday we visited some friends at their cottage on Lake Michigan we spent the day on the beach and then enjoyed a fire in the pit. Kyan collected some rocks and will be doing an expirment to find fossils in them by submerging them in vinegar. Stonington, where the cottage was is famous for having lots of fossilized rocks.
I think we can officially say Nolan is POTTY TRIANED!!! WOO WOO!! He is 27.5 months, not bad for a boy but not good enough to beat Ky's record of 25 months! He still has an accident if you dont remind him/force him to go! But NO MORE DIAPERS!!! (with the exception on nap and night) All I heard all weekend was how well Nolan speaks. He sure is a blabber jaw. He is speaking in 4 word+ sentences and likes to repeat everything he hears his big bro say. The mom in law brought back her cords for her camera so pics are coming soon, she has captured the entire summer for me so far and boy does have some great ones!
