Swimming
We started swimming lessons this month! The first day Shaun cried a lot and got really cold. So, the next time we put him in a swim shirt too and he did much better. We sing songs, play and have fun getting used to the water. I go in the water with him on Tuesdays and Bill on Thursdays.

No more bottles!
We are officially done with bottles! I decided to one day just start giving Shaun milk in a new sippy cup at breakfast, lunch and dinner, and he does great! He has used a sippy cup to drink water for awhile now, but not milk. He just recently had a month or so where he refused to hold the cup himself. So, I decided to get a different style of sippy cup and never hold it for him. He caught back on really fast! He is also down to one nap a day now. He usually gets up sometime between 6-8am, takes a 2-3 hour nap at about 1pm and then goes to bed at 8pm.
Bill to Portland & San Antonio
Bill travelled out of state twice this month. First was for the unit’s first “Mobex” of the season. Starting in May and going through August or September, one officer and one LN travel to a city in the Northwest region that has requested legal help with wills, etc for their unit. Portland was the first city on Bill’s list. Then, 2 weeks later, they had their annual LN conference, this year held in San Antonio, TX. He reported it was boring like usual, but fun in the social aspect. He gets to see other LNs from around the country. It was an extended 4 day weekend, one extra day for travel and one extra day for the conference. I enjoyed the extra time with Shaun, but also still working when he was sleeping. Bill’s next Mobex’s are to Spokane and Helena, MT, both in August. His Alaska Mobex for June was cancelled. He will get to take June off because he worked twice in May.
Mom’s Day
My 2nd Mommy’s day was great! I thank God everyday for the privilege of being a mom! I got some beautiful flowers a couple days before hand. Then on the day, I got 3 cards: one from Shaun, one from Abby, and one from Bill. I also got a new crockpot. A few months ago I had started using a hand me down crockpot that has been sitting in our cupboard for several years because I wanted to make some new meals. I have enjoyed using it, so Bill got me a more modern one!
Starting lake travels
We started our weekly trips to the lake on Memorial Day weekend. It was a gorgeous weekend. I don’t think we have had a Memorial Day weekend like that in years!

Zoo!
We took Shaun to the zoo for the first time on Memorial Day. Shaun loved it! He said a lot of “ooohs” while looking at all the animals. We got there not long after they opened, which was a good thing because it got pretty crowded by the time we left about 2pm. Shaun was barely hanging on because he was past due for a nap. He made it home without following asleep, and then slept until almost 5:30. I went in to wake him up to make sure that he would sleep that night.
