He's pretty proud of these new specs, he's been showing them off all day to anyone who will listen. They came with a cool case with a surfer on it too. I think he looks pretty darn adorable in them. All ready for big boy school now!

We're thinking school time!
The boys have had full work ups in the past couple weeks. We started with hearing and vision screening at the health department that are required of all kids beginning school. They both did fine with the hearing and Matthew passed the vision. Jonathan was having trouble with the smaller letters and the lady caught Matthew pointing for him showing him which way the "E" was pointing!! They were cheating!! Jonathan was referred for the eye doctor.
We hit the dentist and did fine there except Matthew has a chipped molar so he had to go back for a filling that took all of five minutes.
Jonathan and I headed off for eye appointments. I have bad astigmastism and my prescription has changed. Jonathan has it too, go figure, luckily his is not nearly as bad as mine so he has picked glasses and will need to wear them for school and reading but should be able to not wear them when playing and being rough. It's hard to believe he needs them, the kid can spot the Coast Guard helicopter from miles away before you can even hear it!
We then headed to the pediatrician and both of them got 4 shots for school. Matthew has a cold and ear infection too so he's on meds. The shots were rough and all three of us cried.
We did some back to school shopping and I have been working furiously on the school paperwork (and there is a LOT of it!) so we're getting there.
Can I tell you how nervous I am for that first day?

Coast Guard Festival
We love the festival!! We watched ships come in, we did the carnival, the parade, the goodbye to the Mackinaw. The boys were so beat they didn't even care we missed the fireworks.
I have never seen the state park beach so crowded as it was that Saturday!! It was so crowded there was no room to sit so the people down there were all standing! Glad we had our own beach further south.
It's quieting down now in town, the water is cooler and the tourists are dropping off a bit. We're getting ready for school!
