The kids got their belated Easter baskets from Grandma Donna & Grandpa Malcolm. Cameron had a great time taking everything out, opening the eggs, throwing the grass around. He made a huge mess...that Melia rolled around in and tried to eat.
David and I have started doing the Insanity workout. Cameron has been a great workout coach! He joins right in and provides his motivation "you're doing good...it's almost there (watching the timer)". It's really funny watching him try to do everything. The video is him doing mountain climbers.
We are also starting a chore board for Cameron. Figured it was time to give him some responsibility since he is already helping with most of this stuff. He was excited because we told him he could start earning an allowance if he does all the things he is supposed to do each day/week. Well the night I explained it I used the example of "feed the cat" as one of the things he could do. Later I went to check the cats bowl and he screamed "NO, that's my business". He rushed right in there, checked the bowl, and promptly came back to say "I checked it, it's empty, give me some money please." Not quite what we had in mind. Now every time we talk about the cat he says it's his job to do it. We are going to start him off with $3/week. Some of it he will have to put in his save jar. The rest he can spend on the stuff he wants...gum ball machines, claw games, and little toys or treats. Should be interesting.
Then just a couple of random pictures.
