Hoppy Frog Collins

When I picked the boys up from school today, Sawyer had a special friend "Hoppy Frog Collins" he had found on the playground.  The teachers had even let him keep it, and then ask his parents if he could take it home ... so, how could I say no!  Sawyer said "it's our first family pet Mom!"  He was super excited.  We brought the frog home and put him in a paper box, with grass, water and some bugs.  The boys enjoyed holding the frog, and the frog spent the night out on the porch.  The next day, Sawyer let the frog back out into the wild!  He sure was excited to have "Hoppy Frog Collins" as a pet for one day though!

Bringing the frog home from school.

He was cute!

Sutton REALLY liked him.

His new home was nice ... but I think he likes it better in the wild.

Sawyer did two sessions of swim lessons, and really liked Mr. Connor.  He is swimming much better now, but still has some room for progress.  I think we will do private lessons next summer.


Cardboard boxes are so much fun!  The boys love cutting & pasting, and drawing on them.  I even brought some boxes home from work one night for them to play with .... it provided an hours worth of fun!

More swimming!
Reading before swim lessons.  Sawyer is starting to like reading, and can read some books to himself.

More produce from our garden!
