Life is crazy sometimes. Crazy, and funny, and sad, and frustrating, and all together good. While many of you can appreciate life with little kids, I'm sure that most of you would just like to catch up with us. We all live so far away, that we miss the day to day happenings, and this is a small way of trying to keep everyone connected. We'd love to hear from you, so please feel free to post comments.

First day of pool season





Water temperate 59 degrees. That's right. Not a typo. Nina wouldn't believe us that the water was too cold to swim. Fine. See for yourself.


side note: I SWEAR this is a genetic thing that she got from Blake. Both of them steadfastly refuse to believe anything that is told to them. "Gee, it's a nice sunny day out"......is usually followed by one of them saying (stubbornly) "Let ME see". Thus confirming what has already been said. Like I have nothing better to do than to make shit up.


Anyway.....we walked down to the pool, still telling her that the water was too cold, and her not believing us. We told her to jump in. She did. Tears and blue lips arrived at the same time, which is to say, immediately. Cruel? Yes, but she was ready to leave after that.


Asher, on the other hand, confirmed my fear that he's not afraid of the water. There's no way that I'll be able to take both of them by myself this summer. He yelled for Blake to bring him in, pulling at the death grip I had on his hand, until Blake bucked it up and took him.
Ah, pool season.
