My Little Fishies!

O.K.- I never knew that having my kids take swim lessons would take up pretty much two complete weeks of my time. We get up in the morning, eat, get ready for swim, go to swim, play at the park (right outside the pool), eat lunch, run errands, go home and give Em a nap and Oni & Havie quiet time, Daddy comes home, eat dinner, go for a walk or check on the garden, put the kids to bed, read or watch T.V., & go to bed. The girls have had SO much fun at their lessons though- they are sad they are over. I guess now I will have to give in and finally buy a swim suit so I can take them swimming more often:) We get to go to Seven Peaks next month with Greg's work and they have seen the commercials on T.V. & can't wait! Havie was mostly just getting used to the water- floating with help, jumping off the edge and putting her face in.


Oni really did take to the water like a fish this year. She can now do the dead man's float & back float by herself and jump in & doggy paddle to the edge. I can't believe the change from last year to this year:)

June 2008

Yes, we were a little slow planting the garden this year. We are too used to having Pops around to get us going in things like this- or just doing it for us:) We tried to scale it down a bit, but still keep what we all like. Oni & Havie had a great time helping with the planting. And this is what Emi did while we worked- looked at a flower and then . . . tried to eat the flower- this girl puts EVERYTHING in her mouth.
