Swimming lessons and a mini vacation

Hello again! Today marks my second day of my 3rd trimester (28 weeks)! It is also Jeremy's and my anniversary! 8 years today! Happy Anniversary Babe! Love you!
taken 4/21-almost 25 wks.
I am bound and determined to blog at least once a month....let's see how well I do? We enrolled Hunter in swimming lessons at the local rec center. He loved them! I am also happy to report that he can blow bubbles under the water, "dive" for rings/toys (in shallow water), kick really well and use his ice cream scoops (his hands) to do strokes in the water. He is not floating, etc. but this was a great introduction to the water and his first classroom setting (with a report card and everything).  Reagan was not happy that she couldn't be swimming with Hunter so we did swim a few times while Hunter was doing his lesson.  I am really pleased with the progress he made (only 3 weeks of lessons plus a little swimming time with Daddy).
he loves the water!
HOLD ON and kick!
"I wanna swim with Hunter!"

 We also were able to go with Daddy on the road while he was in Palm Springs, CA for work. I took the kids to the local children's museum while Jeremy was working one day. It was a HUGE hit! We spent 3 hours there and the kids could have spent longer but I was getting hungry and didn't have anymore snacks. The highlights for the kids were the pizza parlor where they got to make their own (pretend) pizzas, the animal clinic where they got to take care of animals and of course where they got to paint a VW Bug.  Enjoy the pictures (I will try to caption what is going on in each one). Until next time...
Being animal doctors at the animal clinic
(Hunter had to give the kitties "pokes (shots)"
since thats what doctors do)
Painting the bug!
She's so cute! She was shopping for Mommy and herself.



My highlight- he wrote his name all by himself!














Time to checkout
