The Alaska Seidels: Half way through June

I can't believe that its near half way through June, 6th month of 2010!! This year is going quick! This summer is going to be jammed packed too. My mom arrives the end of June; FIL in July, my sister Amy at the end of August, SIL and BIL in Sept and MIL in October. I'm very thankful for the in laws for sure! They just adore Austin! Austin's birthday is coming up as well in September. My baby boy will be three! Oh my goodness! He's growing so fast! He's speaking well too. He's in love with Toy Story (he pronounces it Soy Tory, haha) right now especially with the new movie coming out. The commercials are flooded with Toy story memorabilia. I plan on taking him to see the movie next week. I'll have him bring his big buzz toy and wear a toy story shirt and make a great mommy/son movie date of it. I can't wait!

Let's see, Austin knows some basic colors now like red, green, blue and yellow. He can count to 20, knows his ABC's like the back of his hand, and has started singing happy birthday randomly, lol! In his room, I have his toys in categories and he can put them in the correct boxes, so proud of him! His favorite word of the month is "Alright." He uses it whenever I tell him what to do something or ask him something that is a yes answer. It's so cute but I have no idea where he learned it from!
So far this month I took Austin to a swim lesson with my friend Marcie and her daughter Hannah; swam in the kiddie pool in the backyard; had some BBQ's; spray painted a chandelier and installed it in my room all by myself; trying to grow some kind of pretty flowers out in the backyard but not being successful in that.

Kevin just has this semester left to go and he'll be done and will get his Bachelor's degree! He graduates Oct 8th and hopefully if all goes right we will be taking a drip to Las Vegas, just the two of us! MIL is flying up here to watch Austin while we go. So a lot going on this summer. I heard on the radio that Lonestar (Country band) is coming up in August as well. Sweet! I hope we can go.
