Summer Fun

We are almost a month into Isabelle's first summer at home.  She spent her first 5 summers in daycare. This year she gets to stay hang out with Mom, baby brother and of course Sophie.

Its hard to believe but soccer is over already! We had a really fun season and Isabelle made some new friends in the process. She ended scoring a few goals which she really enjoyed. This will be her last year in co-ed soccer, if she plays next year it will be all girls in the under 8 league. 

 Isabelle and her friend Emma did an art camp at the middle school last week. For 4 days they spent a couple hours working on different projects, I think they had a good time. They stopped me into stops at the park both days that I picked them up.



Unitl kindergarten Isabelle was a pretty picky eater, she just didnt like many things. Eating lunch with a bunch of her classmates everyday really served to broaden her horizons, shes now into taco's, burgers and lots of other good stuff. She really like hardboiled eggs...? yesterday for breakfast she got her favorite...egg man and fruit. 

 Isabelle has taken one dance class throug community ed but has never wanted to join an actual dance class which is wierd because she dances all the time.



One of our goals for the summer was to get Isabelles training wheels off. She had never really shown an interest and we hadnt pushed the issue. Then one day she just says she wants to try. 20 minutes later she was off on her own biking like she had been doing it her whole life.



Along with summer comes carnivals. Isabelle is a total carnival junky. HSe loves the rides, she loves the games, she loves the food, the lemonade, the petting zoos, the whole bit. She loves carnivals. This year she got to take Cousin Natalie on her first carnival rides. They had a blast. We also met Olivia at Father Hennepin and got to ride some rides with her. This week we will hit the 4th of July carnival in Coon Rapids and do it all again.
