First Day of Preschool!

Micah and Madi both started WeeCare today!! Aside from Micah's bad hair day, and last minute nerves, he had an AWESOME day with his teacher Ms. Billi. Madi and Ms. Kelli hit it off, even though I think Madi cried for the first and last hour!! And Mommy... well I don't know what I'll do with my 3 hours twice a week, but surely I can find something....

We may HATE fireworks...but we LOVE swimming!

My kiddos did NOT like fireworks at all!! Micah was excited to go buy them (Madi was too because she thought they were candy), but he had all kinds of rules... No loud ones, no big ones... nothing that daddy wanted basically!!! soooo I got no fourth of July pictures...

What my kiddos do love is SWIMMING!! Daddy is much nicer than mommy and buys Micah almost anything he wants... including a "BIG" pool. Luckly a 12 ft by 30 in pool qualifies as big at this point in Micah's life. It is perfect for the them, and aside from the facts the kids can't go outside by themselves anymore and it takes up my whole patio (because I didn't want to kill any grass) it is pretty perfect for mommy, too!! Micah took swim lessons earlier this summer, and has had lots of fun practicing his skills, but Madi took away more from his lessons than he did even though she was never allowed in the pool! She has been reminding him of proper technique for blowing bubbles and our "float stroke" (chicken, airplane, solider). Thanks for the lessons Ms. Dawn (who is also Micah's new crush...)!!

Oh, and did we mention mommy is GIRLS CAMP leader... HAHA!! There are also a few before and after pics from our 5 mile hike!
