I cannot believe that I haven't posted in over a month. That's crazy. I guess it shows how busy we've been and how tired I am at the end of the day. We just got back tonight from Florida. We had a wonderful time. I have a bout of strep throat yet again but other than that it really went well. Kingston and Everest were wonderful. They couldn't get enough of the warm weather and of course the beach and pool. Everest can swim unattended now. I still fear he will drown because he thinks he is Michael Phelps and he is more like half-drowing rat. Kingston has absolutely no fear of the water and luckily the water was heated so he didn't freeze as he did in Guangzhou. Building sand castles was a hit at the beach, as well as jumping over waves. Kingston had a thing with dumping sand over his head. We are still picking sand out of his hair. Kid is strange. Ryan and I had a night out in Naples and had a wonderful time, feeling very fancy as we spent way too much on dinner and drinks. Unfortunately you'd have to go to McDonald's or Subway to get a meal in Naples at an affordable rate. So fancy we were. Speaking of McDonalds, every time we say it Kingston says, "EIEIEIO." His langauge exploded this past week. He is speaking in three word sentences and he is getting easier to understand. I am really glad to have had this trip to FL to bond with Kingston. I felt like I didn't really get the chance in that we got home from China, I got sick and then I headed back to work. In Florida we all got to relax as a family. It was really good for us and now it is basically back to reality for the Lentz's. We had a full day of travel today and the kids are cranky. I don't blame them. I would be cranky too. Actually, I kind of am.
