Here's the updates for summer:
Chan graduated from Keikiland! It was an exciting night and Chan was super excited cause he thought he was starting kindergarten the next day. He's actually continuing at Keikiland during the summer though until school starts in August.
Chan was very comfortable on stage when they performed for us at the graduation which was surprising. I had to pain his nails with that nasty tasting no-bite clear coat though so he didn't have his fingers in his mouth the whole time. Ha ha!
We've been going on walks/bike rides after dinner since summer started which is a nice way to end the day. Chan loves riding without training wheels or without his balance bike now.
Esme is also loving her new big girl bike she got for summer and actually has someone to ride with now that Chan's on her old bike.
The pic says it all :)
This is a series of 3 pics. It's not always apparent but this is obvious that these girls have a connection. If anything, it's at least from just spending their every day together. So sweet!
Happy birthday Uncle Sterling! The big 3-0!
Esme has a busy summer ahead of her with multiple camps and stuff. This past week she did a 1 week intensive camp at UH-Hilo with a few of her friends from school. She got to carpool every day with our neighbor Elizabeth which she was super excited about.
Her classes at camp were very diverse and one of their big projects was painting this mural on the campus. Esme's in the back row, fifth from the right.
Like I mentioned above, Chan is continuing at Keikiland over the summer but he also started the UH-Hilo swim camp in the afternoon. This is the last year we'll get any use out of this wetsuit I think. Esme will start swim camp with him in July.
Poppy and Eve are still at the same sitter of course and won't start Keikiland until next year. In the meantime they're busy being busy, cute, defiant, happy, dramatic, upset, crying, laughing little 2 year old girls :)
Chan has an eye for flowers for his mama. He notices any flower, big or small, and will make a big deal to stop and pick one for me. This was on our bike ride one evening.
You can barely see them but he found these 2 tiny flowers for me :)
NEXT STOP: We're headed back to the Pacific Northwest with the biggies next week and leaving the twins in Hawaii with Nana and Papa. Details and pics to follow!
