48 pineapple-mango smoothies (CK).
Diet Coke x Infinity (me).
2 cases of strep, 1 ear infection, and croup (Ethan).
3 summer colds (all but Giang).
2 failed sleepover attempts (CK at other homes).
3 birthdays (all but Giang).
35 trips to target.
1 dead laptop. It was the good one, too. Hence the lack of blogging.
62 days of 100+ temps. (our summer started after CK's last day of school, 5/28)
5 movies at the theater.
6 playdates.
765 hours* of lego building. (*could be slightly exaggerated. but it was ALOT.)
650+ pictures taken, not including the 200+ with our phones.
52 nightly walks.
24 scorpions killed.
15 dips in the pool.
70+ cannonballs into the pool.
2 family visits.
6 tutoring sessions.
20 chapter books read (19 by CK, 1 by me. Hooray, we're on chapter books!!!!).
3 scrapbook pages made. (3 is better than none, right?)
Numerous cards made. At least I am making something. LOL
944 pins on pinterest. (LOVE LOVE LOVE pinterest.)
215+ tweets. I stopped counting after 215.
I can't even count the number of Angry Birds sessions we've played. (Do you count by level? How many times you played each level? Or the blocks of time you lost by playing? then multiply that by the 4 of us...and you've basically got our entire summer. LOL)
9 pieces of furniture completed. (thanks Giang!)
6 trips to the office.
8 new words from Ethan. (no, over there, bay-bee, two, three, four, five)
Countless hours of Disney, Nick, and Nick Jr. watched.
And tomorrow...SCHOOL STARTS!!!! 2nd grade, here we come!!!
(The only picture I could find where they are both looking at the camera, and Ethan isn't rushing me trying to look at the picture I just took. Although, you can see that he's about to. HA.)
Love this of all the boys, after a 'let's get daddy!' wrestling match.
And I like this one of Ethan. If I had my other computer, I'd have the ability to crop me out. RIP, other laptop. :)
Bye summer! See you next year! :)



This is fab, Bridge! As for Angry Birds, maybe you count many pigs you've blown up? LOL!
