Last month we signed up the boys for swimming lessons at the YMCA. These were group swimming lessons instead of one-on-one lessons. I have to say that I was not happy with the experience. The boys really didn’t learn anything

Today we spent more time on the beach and at the pool. We had great weather and the boys started warming up to both the ocean and the pool a bit more. For dinner, we met the Metzgers at Bach

This was our first full day, not counting our travel day. We hit the beach pretty early. Weston surprised us by being pretty timid toward the water overall. He simply wanted to stay up on the safe sand and watch

Today was our travel day. The boys went to school and Traci went to work while I focused on getting stuff ready for the trip. This was the first year that we went the way the GPS (Waze) told us

We got the kids some headphones for the trip in hopes that they will listen to their DVDs, LeadPads and iPads through the phones and let Traci and I listen to our music or just have some peace and quiet.

We went to get a new pool today since it’s getting warm enough outside to play in some water. This pool is a bit larger than our previous one, and it barely fit in the Pilot.

I’m somewhat amazed and impressed at Turner’s interest in puzzles. I opened a new dinosaur puzzle today and helped Turner put it together. Then we disassembled it and I sat and watched while Turner put it together by himself. Only,

We went to Turner’s Asian friend Yui’s birthday today at the zoo. I took some cute pictures and video clips, but after taking the boys to visit my family at Boog’s place, this one won the day. This kid.

Turner built this and was actually very upset that I didn’t immediately realize this was supposed to be a tree.

Every once in awhile. They look sweet.
