Jaide now likes to stick her tongue out.  She is now babbling "la, la, la".  

Sloan is now swimming without her puddle jumpers.

I love to watch the kids play and interact with one another.  Sometimes they constantly fight and make me completely crazy, but sometimes they get along really well and have fun playing with each other.  Their imaginations are so fun.  They pretend they are skunks.  They pretend to be police officers or firefighters and rescue each other.  They pretend to have a grocery store and one or two of them are the cashiers and the others are the shoppers.  They pretend they are Tarzan.  They pretend they are Pocahontas, John Smith and the Englishmen.  They pretend they are dogs or cows or monkeys or lions.  It's always very entertaining.

School starts in a month.  I already know that I am going to be one of "those parents".  I will probably cry the first day of school.  My babies are growing up so fast.  I love having my kids at home and it will be a change to have them gone each afternoon.  I don't need anyone to tell me how great school is going to be for the boys, how much they are going to enjoy it and how they "need" it.  I'm sure they will love it and I will love hearing about what they learn each day.
