What a crazy busy week we had! (I feel like I say that every week, especially in the summer time). We started our week off with swimming lessons. 5 whole weeks of getting Alexis to the pool by 9:50 for her 30 minute lesson is now over! Wahoo! I'm surprised by how much she learned though. She is almost swimming completely on her own. She is our fish!

Shannon, Shai and Q decided to meet us at the pool after swimming lessons so the kids could get some much needed play time in. Alexis was really missing her Shai. We always enjoy spending time with them!

The most exciting part of my week was picking up the pictures of Alexis' 1st Dance Recital. I can't wait to frame them and display them for all to see. We're so proud of her.
(isn't she cute?)
Cory bought a digital under-water camera that I am absolutely in love with! No more having to take my big expensive camera to the pool! It arrived via UPS at 5:00PM on Tuesday. We wasted no time in throwing on our swimming suits and heading to the pool to test out our new camera. What fun we had!
(Here are my favorite pics from that night!)
I'm a little obsessed with Pottery Barn - Pottery Barn Kids to be exact. I ordered their "anywhere chairs" a few weeks ago and had the kids' names put on them. They are perfect! Paxton loves his and used it more as a climbing wall than a chair, but it has brought him hours of entertainment and laughs. A double win!
WATER WORLD! At the beginning of summer I made a "Summer Bucket List" full of fun things that we wanted to do this summer. We've had this one on the calendar for awhile now. We kept debating if we should bring Paxton or not. Paxton is slowly warming up to the water but still gets quite upset when water touches his face. Luckily we choose to leave him home with the babysitter! Alexis had mommy and daddy all to herself for a full day, she loved it. She wasn't tall enough to go on everything but tall enough to go on most things. She is our dare-devil and wanted to go on everything. We let her. She loved one slide called "Monkey Buisness" and Cory and I had to take turns taking her down it, several times. By the end of the day she told me she wanted to live at Water World. Love that girl!
