Not too much goin' on

in the Aloha state for us this week. More of the same: swim lessons, errands, laundry, dishes, cooking; sounds exotic and leisurely doesn't it?! We did have a super fun day today; we met up with some friends after swim lessons for another picnic in the park at Moanalua Gardens. I'd love to share some pictures with you but my camera battery died...I know mom, big surprise right? So, instead I will subject you to more photos of my fish belly pale children at swim lessons :) Pookins jumping off the diving board; notice my use of the "sports setting" on my camera...






And today was safety day at swim lessons which means everyone gets thrown in with life preservers on. NOTE: Magoo DID NOT LIKE THIS AT ALL! Poor thing could barely get his arms around the puffy part to hang on to the wall :( Did I mention he's the youngest (and smallest) kid in the class? God love him!






In case you were thinking it was bright out or something in that last picture; it was. But he's not squinting b/c it is bright, he was practicing for tomorrow when all the parents are invited to get into the pool with the kids. He'll have to squint like that when I reveal my FISH BELLY PALE body to the swim class. God give me strength!

Did I mention I am going to Vegas? 4 days!! More info on that trip over the weekend, stay tuned!

In the summer, summer time....

I had a whole long post all typed out about WHY DevilDoc insists on asking me what we did all day everytime he comes home. And not just a curious, what did you do today? A more accusatory statement insinuating that in fact I did NOTHING all day. Then I deleted it because I'm just not dwelling on negatives.
Instead, here is a positive. Yesterday Pookins jumped off the diving board at swim lessons, on the way home told me he wanted to go off the high dive.




So, of course today they try to get the kids off the high dive. He was having NONE of it! He did climb up and wave to his teacher in the pool though, LOL! He says when he is 10 he can go off the high dive...I've got $5 says he's jumping off it by Friday :)












And, lest you think I have a favorite child or something Magoo is also in swim lessons...




I apologize for the choppiness of this post; I am still figuring this thing out and it isn't cooperating...OBVIOUSLY!
