Yesterday Courts and Aaron and I made our first trip to the lake of the summer. We can walk there, but yesterday we drove and only stayed for about an hour and a half before Aaron wanted to come home and eat a sandwich burger. Aaron spent the first part of our trip digging, which he called "shoveling" and the second half swimming. The water temperature was perfect! I have a summer goal to try to do something outside with Aaron everyday, preferably before naptime so that he will actually go to sleep! We are sometimes combining his playtime with our exercise. After a very vigorous walk/jog yesterday morning I am getting a slow start today and we will be sticking to the backyard.
We also began one of Aaron's summer "homeschooling" initiatives, tracing. I got some tracing books and cards to use with him this summer, some letters, numbers, and just drawing lines and shapes. Yesterday we traced for the first time in his tracing book and today is the first time we tried tracing letters. I am amazed at how well he did on this and had to take pictures of them. I hope they are big enough in this layout to show how well he traced. We are definitely going to keep practicing this skill!
