Jenn Reedy--just wanted to say I am glad you're back and yes we do need to get together sometime soon!!
We have taken the kids swimming twice this summer. They absolutely love it. And the second time we bought some floaties and innertube ring things and that made it a whole lot easier to have all three of them there. Of course I wasn't by myself. Too many little unswimming kids for one person! Katherine did great. She wanted to wear just the floaties and was really trying to swim. Kaleb, being the crazy boy that he is wanted no floaties, no ring, NOTHING. He just wanted to try and swim all by himself but we soon found out that he doesn't keep his head above water very well on his own. But he sure was trying.
As much as they fight, it sure is fun to watch the kids play together. They have these days, or rather moments, where they will just pretend and play and have a blast together. It's so cool. Recently they have been taking their floats/rings around the house pretending to be pirates. The other day Katherine said, "Come on Pirate Kaleb. Let's go Captain." And Kaleb said "Ok." Katherine corrected him letting him know that the proper response was "Aye Aye Captain." So he immediately just said "Aye Aye Captain." Off they went into Kaleb's room where apparently there was treasure and I heard Katherine saying "I love treasure!" It was cute.
Did I mention earlier that Abbey now says a few more words? They are all slurred and aren't extremely coherent but they are words nonetheless. She says grandma, thank you, that, there she is (when we play where's Abbey). Those I have heard her say on a regular basis. Well, I've only heard her say grandma twice but I know she has said it more than that. What is so hard about mama and dada??? And I am positive a few months ago she said her version of Bob the Builder.
