swimming

Today could not be a more beautiful day. These are the days that we live for. 75 degrees, blue sky, gorgeous sun, low humidity. Because the day was so beautiful, everything we did today seemed so easy and fun. I wish all days could be like this!

Delight:  Little Gym was really fun this morning. The girls still don't like the circle time at the beginning; I guess they aren't interested in walking/running/galloping in circles while singing songs. I think they don't like it because the teacher plays a recording of a man singing and talking. They are probably confused because they can't "see" who is talking to them! Hopefully they can come to accept circle time will be part of the activity every day.

Today we learned how to do the forward roll. Both girls LOVED it. Little Bird especially wanted to do it over and over. She has great form too. The teacher said that she was so impressed that both of them instinctively put their hands out and tucked their chins as we flipped them over. Could they be great gymnasts some day?!? HA!!!

Delight: Since our first plan to go swimming last week was hindered by ran, we attempted a second run at it. The girls were excited to go and see "K" and "Errnnn" and puppy too. They didn't love swimming today, but I guess they gave it a good attempt. Even though they love to play with "K" and "Errnnn" they only wanted me to take them in the pool. We did have a good time wiggling our piggies and splashing the water for a while, but Little Pie wasn't totally into it after she took a face plant into the water. oops. We will keep attempting their "swimming lessons" with "K" and "Errnnn" so that they can be little fishies someday! 

Little Pie warming up after her swim "experience".

Little Bird all cozy wozy. (She likes to say cozy wozy).

The girls lounging and watching Lobo sleep. They were waiting for him to get up and run around so they could yell "puppy!".

Heading home after a fun afternoon!
