June - July updates for Frank
Frank is getting pretty good at paddling in the kayak, especially when there are no wind or waves. Grandma or I just sits and he paddles.
Back in June Frank caught his first fish at the Fishing Derby. He is enjoying being by the water, on the boat, etc.
Sport camps : First we did baseball and Frank hated it. He stood out in the field and gave me dirty looks. The second day he was crying in the field and Gabby from his preschool had to comfort him and hold his hand to walk from station to station in the field. Then we pulled out with the agreement that we try soccer. He got anxious as usual before soccer but had a good time on the field. The coaches got him running and laughing. He continued to refuse to go each morning but after getting out there on the field he had a great time. We did all five days and promised to not sign up for any more sports.
Vacation Bible School : Frank and his new friend (our neighbor) Steven went to VBS at First Baptist. He was scared but having Steven there really helped. Then there were some preschool friends there too. After 2 nights of 5-8:30pm we decided to stay home for dinner and show up at 6 instead. By the 4th day Frank was singing the songs and telling us what they were learning. He still didn’t want to go on the last day. We kept Timmy up and all went to pick Frank up on the last day. He actually did have a great time even if he won’t admit to it. Maybe next year we’ll try again =).
Frank now likes eggs. He used to only eat the white part of my egg but now he will eat one himself. He also enjoys it scrambled.
The latest development is Frank can button and unbutton his own shirt. It takes him awhile and he is extremely proud when he is finished.
