Summer Livin'

When my kids say they enjoy doing nothing but relaxing.. they aren't lying.  They spend their long summer days kicking it around the house.  They will do a chore here or there, but they are really loving their free time.  We have been getting lots of back to school shopping out of the way because it's creeping up on us.  Owen starts back on the 27th... of July.  We still have a lot of details to iron out before I can send him back and he will only go a few hours a day, but this little guy is ready for 2nd grade.  Kam has an extra week of summer before she jumps into her Sophomore year.  I am all about letting them be lazy for the next two weeks.. between shopping, appointments, and chores.

We ventured out this weekend to see the new Minion movie.  Owen loved it, but the rest of us could have passed.  Next weekend is Antman, so you can bet Owen is counting down the days. 
Oh and we took Mr Logi to his first movie experience.  He was such an angel and slept on my lap the entire movie.  Best baby ever!
Owen loves to take pictures with the posters.  Another movie he is dying to see.  I'm pretty sure PacMan is supposed to be eating his arm here. 
With lots of time at home, Logan has been trying new foods everyday.  No doubt this boy loves his food!  He isn't impressed with baby food, but would rather eat "real" people foods.  I have moved from pureeds to soft foods and things that dissolve easily.  He also can't get enough of ice water in his sippy cup.  He has mastered the sippy and he is a guzzler.
Love it when you pick him up and the puffs are stuck all over his clothes. We can't get enough of this little hunk.
Owen hasn't been eating as well as his younger counterpart.  He has been so picky!  Even foods I know he loves he decides they are just gross.  He is obsessed with fish tacos right now, but only certain ones.  He also loves his Spicy Kung Pao Chinese food, pretzels and peanuts.  The other morning he asked for strawberries and I looked over to find a feast of crutons and parmesan cheese.  This is the breakfast of champs.  I always encourage him to pick a produce, protein and carb at each meal.. he did just that!
This is really all we are up to.  Endless piles of laundry, housework and appointments keep us busy.  We were going to head to SunSplash today but decided with Owen's low white blood count, I should probably err on the side of caution and not go to a public waterpark right now.  So we played UNO, folded laundry, and watched a movie instead.  Life is good.
