swimming

Look at this!! I finally got pictures up!! I really, really prefer to have posts with pictures, I think it's much nicer to have both pictures and words...so I'm glad to finally have gotten some on here!!

These are from Friday at Fox Hills

Here is the main indoor swim area. All six kids are actually in the picture, really. You'll have to click on the picture to see Jayden though.....he's in the pool to the left and just past Than and Amanda by the hose. You can just barely see his little head poking up! Don't forget to click the back button on your browser to get back here, unless of course you're done reading already. I have no idea what Than and Amanda are talking about, but I can tell you that whatever Lee and Max are talking about, they aren't happy with each other!! Such body language, or is it just body language that I can read, cause I see it so much?

The hose in the above picture is running into the pool and refilling it, thus making it very chilly in the pool! So the older kids all warmed up in the hot tub every so often. Max is very sad, the rules recently changed and now he has to wait until he's six to be in the hot tub. So he wrapped up in a few towels and sat in the sun with me. Here is Lee in the hot tub.
And Collin in the hot tub.....
It took me multiple times to get a decent picture of this girl!! But here she is in the pool.
Jayden is soooo excited, he finally has learned to swim...well dog paddle.... So he spent the entire time working on it. It's not a good picture, but it is a picture of him in the water without his flotation body suit! Of course then Max didn't feel like he should have to wear his, as he of course can do everything his brothers do!!! But he's not quite there yet.....
Lee swimming in the pool.
Lee underwater in the pool.
Jayden grinning fit to be tied, he's sooooo happy to be a swimmer now....did I mention that yet?
The tables I hang out at, while they swim inside. We have been eating lunch there so that the kids can stay longer. Usually my laptop is out on the table, but Friday I was reading instead.
There is an outdoor area also, but of course I forgot to get pictures of it!

I'm doing OK. I had to stay in bed all day yesterday and today, but am feeling better than I have so far. I have an appointment Tuesday, and am hoping to find that my lungs are clear and I can get back to real life!!

Hope you all enjoyed the pictures!!

Hi guys!
Wow, what a nice pool. I've seen it from the street but not inside. Mmmmm...should I bring my suit? Ha ha! Two weeks from today and I will be there. Fair warning - I have been practicing my tennis on the Wii and am no longer "pathetic!" I'm ready for a challenge! Love, Daffy
