Summer Days are Going By Fast

It's just me and the boys this weekend since Todd took Rachel with him to help Richard Murdock with the Leadville 100 Race.  Todd, Rachel and Rich's family are his relief crew.  They run around to certain spots along the race to provide whatever he needs.

The boys are just hanging out, playing the Wii.  I got a bunch of scrapbooking done and Noah is playing. Every once in a while he will get up and walk 5-10 steps.  He hasn't been all that interested in walking but the fact that he is getting up and doing it on his own is a "step" forward.

Rachel has been doing a day camp for some neighborhood kids with her friend Jaden.  The last week we had 9 kids.  This next week we only have 3 and they are younger.  We will have to see how it goes.

The kids are about a month away from their blue belt test to receive their blue-red stripe belts.  They are so good at Tae Kwon Do.  Todd has been busy at it too.  I imagine he will test for his next belt, a red belt next month as well.

Todd has also started cycling.  He gets up every morning at 5 am to go for a ride for an hour.  Then he still attend TKD at night.  He is motivated in a way I haven't seen before.  It has got me going as well.  This past week I have gotten up and walked every morning.  Plus I am doing some light weightlifting.

Ethan and Jacob have started the new school year - 5th and 2nd grades respectively.  So far it is going well.  They will have to learn to rely on each other more since Rachel is not there.  Rachel will be starting school the day after Labor day - in September.  We just ordered her uniform.  I hope she likes it ok.

Can't think of anything else right now but maybe later.
