More Lake

Boating/tubing, fishing, and playing in the pool!  Just another day at the lake!  I don't have any pictures of us tubing.  Me and Addison rode one tube while Erin and Parker rode another.  It was only for a minute or two, then Parker was done and Addison followed.  After they got back in the boat, Erin and I did some tubing.  

Lake Time

Swim Class: Day 2

SUCCESS!  Blake got in the water with Alyssa and I stayed over by Addison's class.  At first she wouldn't go shower off before getting in the water, so I didn't force her.  Then she decided she would shower, so I walked her over to do it.  Her class was already getting in the water.  We went back to the pool and she was very hesitant to get in and join everyone.  I decided to play the bribery card using ice cream with lots of sprinkles and it worked!  She got in and participated with the class.  I was so proud of her for being a big girl and doing something she was unsure of.  I gave her ice cream as soon as we got home with a million sprinkles!

Swim Class

Swim class started this week!  Alyssa is in the Parent/Child class and Addison is in the Pike class.  Alyssa loved every minute of being in the water learning how to move her arms, kick her legs, and blow bubbles.  She is also learning how to climb out of the pool.  Addison, on the other hand, wouldn't get in the water.  She loves the water, but didn't want to wear the little floatie that is required during the class.  She said that she will try again tonight.  I really hope that she comes around because I think that it would be very beneficial for her to learn some water basics right now.

Play Date with Twins

Finally got to meet another July 2010 mommy & her adorable twins!  We have a small online group of 80 women who all had babies in July 2010.  This is the first time I've met one of the members in person.  Now I'll get to see her and the twins all the time, since they just recently moved close to my hometown!

We are having a great time with family and friends in Louisiana!  The weather is super hot, but luckily we are finding plenty of ways to stay cool!
