I really love swimming. It's so much fun to go swimming now that Maxwell is swimming. I've always loved being in a swimming pool but as an adult, it's much more fun to go swimming with kids who are all excited to go swimming with you. :)
Emmalyn in her float (that we bought for Maxwell a few years ago)
Maxwell swimming back to the stairs
She was having fun
Morning swimming leads to great naps in the car
These car grocery carts are in high demand each time we go grocery shopping at Kroger.
Summer Style
Later that evening we went swimming again. Maxwell was uncharacteristically adventurous and jumped off the waterfall!
Video - Maxwell jumping!
Not really playing together but at least playing close to each other
Emmalyn bumped her head and got this nice bruise. OUCH!
Watergun fun in the backyard
Capturing Maxwell mid-giggle
Love the style with the vest and messenger bag
Sweet Maxwell loves writing me notes - This note he wrote for me to get when I got home from work.
A few things on this side..
"To mom"
"Work"
"3 1/2" (Since that's how old he is)
Other side
"I now"
"is Max"
"What"
"P.S. P.S. Max"
Not too bad... he wrote all of that himself! (We will have to work on the flow to his messages but hey, it's a start. ) :)
Video - Adorable giggles from Emmalyn (Dad still is the best at getting them)
Maxwell ended up getting a private swim lesson because he was the only one in his class. Coach Katie pushed him and he got some really good practice in!
Working on his kicks
Video - Maxwell at swimming lessons - jumping in, rolling to his back and floating (which is a little difficult right up to the ropes), rolling back over, and swimming to the step... all by himself!
Pretty awesome for a 3 year old! I was 7 years old before I swam without floaties.
Hanging out while big brother swims
This drool monster loves reading books
Those teeth just keep coming which means more and more drool. Her bottom right canine has now popped through her gums.
She also loves pizza
Enjoying the flowers in the front yard
Selfies with daddy
My perspective of the selfies. :) I love seeing these sweet kids loving their daddy so much.
Emmalyn in a darling beret I bought her. If only I could get her to keep it on!
