Getting ready for bathing suit season


How important is it the kids learn to swim?

 I have a month before I have to be at the pool.  My body looks flabby, lumpy and veiny.  The thought of  putting on a bathing suit is depressing and terrifying at the same time. I will be walking around the pool thinking of the quickest way to get from my chair to the pool and back again.  The whole thing makes makes me so exhausted.  You can see why I'm too tired to exercise.


Maybe I can just call the whole thing off.  How important is it that the kids learn to swim?

sorry about all the duck photos. I couldn't figure out how to take them off.

DUCKS IN THE POOL







This was the highlight of our day. The boys fed these ducks bread for quite a while. We had our weekly visit from our ES (homeschool teacher) today. Seriously, as soon as she enters the house the boys are wired. You would think they had been eating sugar right out of the bag. They are litterally running in circles, bringing out toys, and then Christopher gets a big container of dirt and just throws it right on Isaac. It is so embarassing. They are at karate right now!!!! It is so nice to be able to have a break.

the first 100 days...

Yes, it is 1 in the morning and all is finally quiet and calm..well not completley Ricky has started feeling sick. Curling up on the couch this afternoon was not a good sign. I was happy when he went out and played with the neighbors for a bit, but now he is coughing, so I am back to being worried. Is it swine flu?? AHHHH!!!!
Can't we ever get a break!?!
It is Obama's 100th day in office, I am giving him a D for a grade, the world seems out of control and he is in the center making it all worse.

  • I love you sisters!!! I am loopy tired and wish I could spend a day sleeping.
