We have been finally enjoying some summer weather. It has been beautiful the past few days. Summer has arrived just in time for Fall.

Matthew went to the beach on Friday with friends of ours. He played in the sand but did not go near the water. He even let a friend of mine bury his legs and make him look like a mermaid.

He wore his cooling vest and it worked great. He didn't complain of being hot and didn't look like he was wilting.

Yesterday we went on a walk at a local state park. Matthew rode in the backpack carrier and had a good time. Matthew's first day of Kindergarten is on Tuesday. He will be picked up in the school mini van. He isn't allowed to ride on the bus since it's against New York State law to put a car seat on a big school bus. He will be the only child in the van and they will bring him directly to and from the school.

Friday morning we have to leave for Boston around 4 AM. We have to be there for our 10 :30 meeting. We will be staying there through Sunday. We are walking in the Mito walk on Sunday. We are very excited to be meeting some of our caringbridge friends at the walk.

Today is another beautiful day,. Matthew has been resting in the living room so far, but I am going to get him up and outside soon.
