Full House!
Summer is here and we have full house! Our son Eric & his partner Emilie have moved in to the lower level of our house along with Emily’s 4 year old Melissa and Eric’s 3 year old Ava and 5 year old Zennon. Eric has his kids during the summer and his ex - Tammie has them during the school year. Mary Beth & I really wanted to be able to spend a lot of time this summer with the grandkids and this seemed like the perfect way to do it. Our house has plenty of room and it gives Eric & Emilie the ability to save some money and move into an apartment this fall when Ava & Zennon go back to their mom.
We bought Ava her first bike and all three kids love to go for rides with their “Nana”. We are doing lots of outside activities. The kids love helping in the garden as well as playing with toys and riding bikes. We have set up the family room with their inside toys. We are strongly enforcing a new rule - if you take it out you put it back BEFORE leaving the room. So far we have about 95% compliance!
We are really looking forward to the summer. We will keep you posted on various activities and I promise to include lots of pictures!
