Summer summed up.

So this is what it feels like to completely forget that I have a blog and not write for two whole weeks! (I kid, but seriously, the OCD in me can't stand that I have gone that long.)
Look! I figured out the video thing.  Aren't you glad?
Don't you think I should write titles professionally?  Don't worry, I won't quite my day job, although sometimes I wish I could :)
We bought a membership at a pool for the summer knowing that with a baby coming, we would have time, money and energy for little else.
It has paid off, big time.  With friends that belong there too, we are never bored.  And with the exception of Hazel scaring the skin off of my with her kamikaze ways, she has toned it down enough that I can actually take her without Clark (since I am still not supposed to go in the pool for another week or so.)
In short, we love the pool.

**I just came to my blog list only to realize that I have had this post in queue for a while.  Since this I have rejoined the "cool ones" at the pool and actually gotten in.  It's amazing how much more comfortable I am at the pool now, temperature wise.  Clark set goals with each of the girls at the beginning of the summer.  This week Hazel jumped off the diving board, leaving only one child with one goal left (and that is Mia swimming one length of the pool.)  Everyone else has worked hard and had a lot of fun.  I think we'll celebrate, by spending three more weeks at the pool!!

So awesome. See, you don't need an elaborate system to have a good summer.
The pool is the way to go with little fish.

its so funny...all kids are the same at any and all pools. I liked Hazel's growl when you told her to "watch out I am taping your sister" the best.
Cheers,
