A Purple Cast


With it being so hot here, many late evenings are spent at the park. Right after the big fishing trip in Bishop and tennis camp wrapping up, Miss B broke her arm! She fell off the monkey bars as she was flying across and landed flat on her back. She is so fast, I am suprised she has not broken anything prior to this! Even through the tears, she told us she hoped she could have a cast! I think this experience was not as traumatic as I expected, as it has not slowed her down one bit! In addition to the "excitement" of the cast, school started this week. Brittany has already made some new friends and she has even been enjoying homework! Soccer starts up this week, as well as a trip back to the doctor to see if the cast is ready to come off! B has mixed feelings, she wants it to come off so she can play goalie and ride her bike, however she is very fond of her purple cast.....she says she wants yellow next time. I am just praying that "next time" never comes!

Month of milestones!



This last month has been full of milestones for the boys! Just a few weeks ago, Asher started sitting, followed by Christopher a week later! Asher was rocking back and forth on his hands and knees the week before, a week later doing the "army crawl" across the living room. It didn't take long for him to learn how to pull up on everything, I can't keep up! Christopher has been taking his time, he seems to want to be able to "perfect" his crawling before he actually does it. He will be on his hands and knees, slowly lift one hand, set it down, move his back leg foward...you get the point. He concentrates so hard...today he was "kneeling" with his hands on the ledge, trying to pull himself up...I think since Asher leaves him behind now, he is determined to catch up! So, since I have trouble keeping up with these two extremely curious boys, we had a professional babyproofer come in to give us some tips and install some gates on the stairs. Daddy's job this weekend was to install the cabinet locks throughout the house! Asher was more than willing to help Daddy out!

because we love you...




Because Asher, Christopher and Brittany love all of you so much --- and we are, admittedly, horrible at keeping everyone up to date on what's going on in the Schultz house.......welcome to our new Blog! When mommy has time between feeding, changing, cleaning, ...oh and running Miss B to soccer, tennis and school....I will try to keep you updated on the latest news around here, for those of you who want to know (and try to convince daddy to post as well!)
