we've had such a fun few days gearing up for gymnastics and ballet, buying all our leotards and shoes...and enjoying the first few days of school. we had a busy weekend but managed to save time to play with some favorite friends and have some wonderful family time. so today, after a fairly successful trip to the dentist for checkups, i took the girls to the pool to relax. we rarely slow down in our house and i decided we would just go and hang out together. it was so nice....only a few people were around and the girls basically had the whole pool to themselves. we all needed it. i think the baby even enjoyed it. i know my feet and legs were happy to float around in the coooooool water for a while.
olivia began her second full week of 1st grade today. she loves school and enjoyed doing her homework assignments tonight. we still are amazed at the carpool craziest in the mornings. why won't people just follow the rules? i mean, three car lengths really aren't going to make or break your day! (sorry, this has become a pet peeve of mine!!!) alas...we have school pictures tomorrow and will have to enlist daddy to fix the hair. i hate to admit it, but he does it much better than i do. maybe it's his ocd that helps. ha! i will not complain. he's good to have around! (especially when i blow up our garbage disposal, again!)
not much else to talk about today. just wanted to say that family is so important and even on the craziest, busiest days, we are so blessed to have these wonderful, wild girls in our home. they keep us on our toes. they are so ready for baby brother to get here. i'm sure they will have tons of fun with him.
love to all!
