Summer catch up!

This summer we tried to spend a lot of time at the pool! It was so HOT! and being pregnant...(not fun being in a swimsuit lol) but it felt SO good to be in the water. Mady is like a FISH! she is so much like me when I was kid. We literally took her home crying EVERY time. She would be exhausted, with red eyes and not even care. :) Crazy girl. It was also a HUGE summer for her because she was finally tall enough to go down the water slide and could swim to the side. She loved it and felt like a big girl! Noah got so much more brave this summer. Last year he wouldn't even brave the little kid slides, but this year he loved it. So it was a lot of fun for everyone. :)

They also did swim lessons this summer for 2 weeks and I think it was great experience for both of them. Noah's little 'girlfriend' Kaleigh was in his class and he thought that was great. His teachers were awesome and he had a lot of fun. Mady's teacher...well....I think she thought she was teaching 10 year olds instead of 5 & 6 yr olds. but oh well...Mady still had fun. :)

The kids also did gymnastics every Wednesday all summer. They absolutely loved it. :) We've actually considered putting Noah in it during the year...he did so well and really enjoyed it. After gymnastics every week we made it a habit to go to the library. The kids would play computer games for awhile and then we'd check out a few books and movies. :)

At the end of July we went to Utah for 4 days. It was a lot of fun to get away! We stayed the first night with our awesome friends Chant and Kara. it was SO good to see them. Then the next day we went to the Hogle Zoo. let me just tell you what a bad idea that was in July...around noon and 7 months pregnant. holy...crap! way to hot! and my feet and fingers looked like big sausages! my hips hurt...I could go on and on. Not the best idea we had. But the kids had lots of fun and we spent way to much money on ice cream and frozen lemonades! ha ha.

Afterwards we went up to Park City and checked into our condo and went swimming! Mady seriously would have stayed in there ALL DAY! she loved it. Adam would throw her and she would do flips. funny girl. Noah put the life jacket on and swam all over. We did that at least twice a day while we were there. lol. It was so relaxing to have nothing else to worry about but having fun together. :) Other then swimming...We did some school clothes shopping, nap taking and eating. it was great!

Hanging out at the condo!

By the pool!

We spent a few evening at the drive-in, ate lots of snow cones, BBQ'd and just enjoyed the nice weather! Overall we had a busy but fun summer! Hope everyone else did too!
