I haven't felt like bloggin' much these days. I feel like I seem to only post pictures and that's fine, but every now and then it's nice to have something worth saying right?
What's going on around the Holt house you may ask?
We'll we've been busy. But not any busier than any other families!
Alli is finishing up her tumbling this thursday. She wants to take a break thru the summer. She can flip, but up until now only at the gym on the mats. Well she can now flip in the yard. She searches for good soft grass and then will do it! Yay! I'm so proud of her! She will start back in Aug/Sept. Since she will be in 6th grade next year she will be able to try out of Junior High Cheerleader. ( I can't believe I will soon have a 6th grader...yikes!)
Walker is loving baseball this season! He is an Oriele. Or an Oreo as Griffin calls him. He is the first baseman and really shows alot of talent! His little team hasn't won a game yet. I keep telling him it's not about winning but about having a great time and giving your all. But at some point you want them to win at least one game right? He hit an in park homerun the first of the month and of course mom and dad were not there to see it :( He has also taking to a liking of soccer. They play at school and when he gets home he is constantly kicking a ball around. I think this fall we will let him choose soccer or flag football.
Oh and just because I was very vague about Walker's black eye...he fell out of our fort a week ago. And landed on his cheekbone. He looks so stinkin' rough! I don't want people to think he has been fighting. He's too sweet to fight ;)
Griffin is going to be 3 this summer! I still can't believe that! Where does the time go? He is such a big boy too! A big boy with a cowlick that makes it almost impossible to comb his hair down. He would LOVE to play baseball, basketball, soccer, ANYTHING! His is going to be a linebacker for sure! We are working on potty training. I sooooo hope by summer we will be trained, but I'm not holding my breath! Griffin is a spit fire! Very, very busy. But so stinkin' sweet!
We are still settling in our house. There is so much to do when you move into an older house. Every wall needed painting. Wall paper needs to be pulled down (all 3 baths, and entry way). Flooring is an issue. But all these things will be done in time. Right now I am painting. We are starting the stair walls and upstairs living room this weekend. And I think I will take a few months off before tackling the bathrooms. UGH!
We are looking forward to the summer! I'm ready to sleep in...that is if I can get my kids to sleep in! They are all such early risers!
I've been wearing dresses lately...I bought 2 more today. I kinda like wearing dresses...
I wanted to go on a cruise this fall until I heard about the Carnival Cruise ship that tilted the other day in route back to Galveston.
We are having hotwater heater problems for a couple of weeks now. We had a guy come out and look at it...he "fixed" it and we are still having issues. It's not much fun running a tub full of water, getting ready for a nice warm relaxing bath only to step into it and realize there is NO HOT WATER. Not fun at all! So as of right now...not hot water. We have a late baseball game which means a trip over to my in-laws for quick bathes. This means the kids will not be in bed by 9:30....grrrrrrrr!
Well, I guess that's it for now. Just felt like talking! Thanks for listening!
