Busy Week

Last week was very busy!

Monday was kinda nice. Spent the day doing just about nothing.

Tuesday I took the girls to school and ran a couple errands.

Wednesday a couple girl friends came over with their kids and we had a nice play date.

Thursday the girls had school. I went to my girl friend Abby's house for a visit. Then home for naps, swim lessons, then back to school for an ice cream social.
Swim lessons are going well. The first week was a little rough and we were a little concerned because Rachel was not listening and waiting her turn. At Rachel's defense, the instructor did take a good 10 minutes explaining rules and talking. Also, the little boy in the class was terrified of the water. Week 2 went a lot better. Rachel listened and only jumped in once when it wasn't her turn. Week 3 we thought we were actually going to make it all the way through with no 'problems'. The very last thing the kids do is stand up and jump in. It was the little boys turn and he was hesitating SO... Sarah thought she'd show him how to do it. (Sarah was pretty much perfect with waiting her turn until this)
Here are some pictures. It seems that we can never get good pictures during lessons.

Friday the girls and I headed to church for Mornings with Moms. I am so glad our church has this. We all get together and pretty much hang out and share a couple hours with others that 'need' to get out.
