July

We got all settled into our new home and love it. We have a hot tub and the kids swim in it a couple times a day. They all do really well in the water, but especially Daniel. He is a natural and LOVES the water.

I would often make the kids something different from us for dinner, but cracked down this month and decided to enforce having them eat their veggies and try everything on their plate. The kids are doing great and love hearing all the praise I give when they try something new.

WE have had another busy month because there were some things that needed to be fixed on the house right away .We had a handicap walk in bathtub. You open the door and sit down and it fills up. Daniel would not keep the door shut and all the water would spill out if we had any in it, so we had to get a new bath tub. Scott did it and it turned out great.
Scott also fixed a leaky outdoor faucet, A leaky sink, Our water heater broke and he installed a new one.

I have been doing the morning route I do now for 4 months. I drive from Frederick to a DC post office and pick up bulk mail. I enjoy doing it but was getting a little warn out with all the work that we have been doing to sell our house and fix up both houses. Scott helps me out one or two times a week which is so nice!

Maya is talking a lot more. She repeats most words that we say. She loves to put on clothes and shoes and to give us a little fashion show. Maya loves being around Daniel and will call for him in the mornings when she wakes up.

Maya is a great eater. Her favorite foods are any veggies, eggs and black beans.

Noah and Daniel are both doing great and just having a ton of fun in our new house and big back yard.

Scott sold his boat and bought riding lawn mower. He got a trailor for $30 and he and noah painted it to match the mower. The kids love going for rides. It has already come in really handy for yard projects to haul stuff around the yard.

There is the update for July!
