Sydney had a loose tooth and she was so excited. Austin has lost 6 teeth and Sydney none but finally she knew it was her turn. She had a loose bottom tooth for a few days before it finally fell out. The interesting thing is when it fell out she did not notice. She was going to bed and then she realized her tooth was gone. Unfortunately we never found it. Brian even took the drain apart hoping to find it from her brushing her teeth but it was never found. However the tooth fairy still came that night and gave her $5. She was so excited!
The kids went to Cavs basketball camp the first week in July. Austin loved it! Sydney enjoyed it too. I was proud of her because she went without knowing anyone. She even met a new friend for the week. However the timing of the basketball camp was not good. Lebron announced the night before basketball camp that he was joining the Lakers. Austin was devastated. He cried for an hour. That made us sad too. Sydney was also a bit sad but not as much as Austin. She didn't enjoy the games like he did. Austin loved the playoffs. He loved to scream and be into it. He liked fan fest downtown. Brian and Austin really enjoyed it. They know how lucky they were to experience it for all the years but they are going to miss it terribly!
We also took the kids to see fireworks with some friends. They enjoyed watching them. They got a balloon animal as well. Sydney got a unicorn and Austin got an emoji person. Those are their favorite things right now. They played in the bounce houses for a bit too.
We went to the 4th of July parade. It was very hot this year! We found a small piece of shade. It was a good thing. The kids sat up by the street under an umbrella. They got so much candy. It was ridiculous how much candy they got. We always have a good time there though!
Austin and Sydney started doing the Home Depot kids workshops again. Austin requested we start doing it again and I looked it up for them. And we went that Saturday. Austin really enjoys it. Sydney has also gotten good at using a hammer. They enjoy projects like that.
We also went camping at their favorite campsite Yogi Bear. They have a great pool with a slide and diving board. Brian taught the kids how to dive. They had a gaga pit that Austin played with the older kids. He used to be shy but now he's fine just going to play with other kids. It kind of makes Brian and I sad how he doesn't need us as much anymore. However it's great seeing him interacting and playing with other kids. They had crafts that Austin and Sydney enjoyed. Sydney also liked the movie in the barn (even though it was so hot). We had a great weekend camping there.
Sydney also learned to ride her bike. She was not as interested in riding her bike much. I really wanted her to learn to ride 2 wheel bike. I would tell her this summer she was going to learn. Austin and Sydney decided together that he would teach her. She didn't want Brian or I to do. Austin did amazing with her and taught her how to ride a bike. They spend an evening in the driveway and she learned. It took a little bit but she finally got it. We were all proud of her and Austin too for teaching her.
