May 2008 Update

Wow, I'm not even sure where to begin this update. This has to have been the busiest month of our lives. With Dylan's second birthday, preschool graduation, soccer, class field trip, ballet recitals, Mother's Day, trip to see baby sheep, other birthday parties and baby showers, my brother and Melissa's visit, packing, moving and unpacking and Kelby's bout with strep throat and scarlet fever on moving day... it's kept us sooooo busy!

Dylan turned two on May 17. She had a Wiggles birthday party and loved when everyone sang to her. (She's still singing Happy Birthday to Dylan all the time.) I can't believe she's two! She's talking a mile a minute, doing GREAT with potty training (why did she pick this month to do it?) and is constantly trying to keep up with Kelby (she can sing right along with Kelby AND Mylie Cyrus). Ha ha.

Kelby graduated from preschool this month and will head to kindergarten in the fall. At least one of her classmates will be going to the same school. She is already missing her friends, so I foresee some playdates in the near future. Once we get settled! Soccer wrapped up this month, as did ballet.

My brother and his new fiance, Melissa, visited us the weekend that we moved. Yes, you read that correctly...FIANCE!! He and Melissa are getting married September 5th in British Columbia. We can't wait! Melissa is so wonderful and they are so cute together. The girls just love her, and she plays along and paints their fingernails. We're all in the wedding, with Scott as the best man and Kelby and Dylan as flower girls - along with 3 of her nieces. How cute will they be!?? Click through to the pictures to see them together...and Scott's long curly hair!

And last but not least, we close on our house tomorrow and we are fairly settled in the rental. We're thrilled to have a big house that fits all our stuff. I told the girls not to get used to their huge rooms, our massive walk-in master closet and more kitchen cabinets than I can fill. Oh, and hopefully Scott won't get used to living within 100 yards of one of the "best" golf courses in this region! I'm going to have to drag him out of here kicking and screaming a year from now. :)
