Freda happily came along with us to the pool, but we couldn't talk her out of this spot in the pool.
She was determined not to fall or get her hair wet.

With Rylie's float in hand, we did manage to get her up from the steps and she very briefly walked around the pool.



Cailin and the Swimmies

She LOVES the pool and the beach. She is a little dare devil in the water. She has not had any swim lessons so far, but that doesn't stop her from trying. I put the swimmies on her arms and she was off.

I had to tell her a million times; don't breathe when your mouth or nose goes under water.

But you know what? She got it and by this time she was closing her mouth and/or spitting the water back out, instead of getting all choked up.

She was even kicking her feet.


And trying to get to where the water was 9 feet. I told you- dare devil!





Grumpy Face

"You see my grumpy face, Momma?" That's what Cailin always asks me. She either gives this face or her over-the-top smile. It's histerical!

Baby Overboard

This was Rylie first time in a swimming pool and she didn't fuss one bit. I thought she would cry about the water being cold.

Instead she played and splashed around.

I love this look she is giving Cailin. She loves her big sister.


I kept having to check on her though. She swallowed a bucket of water this day.

After about an hour, I got her out and let her sit with her Mumsil.





Happy 12th Birthday Ariel

We're singing Happy Birthday to Ariel while Jerry is hiccupping and Rylie is crying.

Rylie and the Strange Noise

Rylie makes strange noises all the time. I was lucky enough to catch a short video. She cracks us up all the time!

Altamonte Striders Invitational

This was her second meet. It was in Orlando at a pretty impressive high school. The school grounds looked like a mini-university. She is a highly competitive girl. She always likes to win. I suppose that is what makes you good at sports. She was 2nd place overall in the 200m and 4th in the 100m. Go Ariel!

Rylie with Daddy

She stares so intently at you, particularly at your mouth when you are speaking. She has a look that says, what are you saying to me.




Cailin Dresses Herself

She wanted to go outside to jump on the trampoline. I told her to put on some clothes and this is the outfit she came up with.

She is such an animated little kid. She says, "This is my grumpy face!" Then after I snap the picture, she immediately wants to see it.

So, this is her happy face.


And Ariel did not want to show her face.
