Catching Up

It's been a while since I last posted...we've been super busy! Last weekend was Mother's Day. The family took me to my favorite breakfast place, Crackers...it was fabulous! Then we headed over to the Children's Museum. Andy had never been there and wanted to check things out. The kids had a great time, as usual. Isaac had his 6-month check up this past week as well. He was 19 lbs. 14 oz. and 28-inches long. He keeps going down on the growth chart for weight, while maintaining the 90-95% for height...that is exactly how A.J. was! Another tall and skinny boy! He has learned to sit up, although he often tips over (a little top heavy due to his huge noggin). And get this...he has already started to crawl!!! I am soooo not ready for that! It's not the hands and knees crawl yet, more like an army crawl, but he gets to where he wants to go. Crazy! Otherwise, we have just been hanging out with friends and swimming a lot (107 here yesterday, and supposed to be the same today...ugh)!

Open for the Season!!!

The pool is finally open for the season!!! It has been in the 100's here this week...finally hot enough to warm up the pool! We had some friends over yesterday and the boys had a great time swimming. It was very impromptu, so none of us ladies had our suits (not that we are thrilled to don them anyway). We were going to swim last night, but there was a palm-tree-grove fire about 1 mile northwest of our house, and the pool was covered with ashes. Today, A.J. begged all day to go swimming again, so we all got our suits on and jumped in! I wasn't sure how Isaac would be in the water, but he LOVED it!!! He kept kicking and hitting the water with his hands to make splashes. A.J. put on his life jacket and finally realized he could swim by himself with it on (last year, he still clung to Andy or me). That boy is like a fish! He was swimming laps across the pool...even shooting hoops! This should be a fun pool season!
