Today

I went into check on Emma (she was supposed to be napping) and this is what I found her doing. This was a first and since then she has started pulling herself up our legs or anything she is close to.

She was upset that I turned around and walked out of the room to grab the camera.

She is really close to crawling. She is still rocking and then falling forward. I am now having to pull things out of her hands! She especially likes the hair, ARG! I guess I have to start doing floors daily! Yuck!

Here is Rhett waiting for his turn at the 'practice' swim meet. He was very insistent that the Red/Black meet was just a practice. I guess we have now entered into the 'we don't know anything' category.


His first meet is Tuesday night. I have to figure out where Garner is... I don't even know how long it takes to get there! I am hoping that we can even get there. Megan is sick, Redge is out of town, I have to volunteer at it with all the kids in tow. Oh boy!


'Swimmers get ready' (I wish you could see him jump in - smooth little bug!) He tells me that the backstroke is not his favorite but he really likes to do the butterfly. He is fastest at the freestyle. hmm I guess I don't know anything, since when did they change it from the crawl stroke.

Here is my Hard workin' man. Isn't he cute! He is getting big. We went to the library and checked out some books. Eli normally gets Curious George but this time he found Junie B. Jones. I guess his teacher must be reading them some Junie B. Jones books. He was so excited he read a book in about a days time. I kept asking him questions about the book to see if he was actually reading them and retaining it! He was!

Megan came home from school on Friday. She was the 14th child absent for that day because of this same sickness that is running rampant through the classroom. Good Heavens, when do we close the class for a few days to get rid of the bug! So because Megan's Birthday is Monday we let her open a present on Saturday and again today. I was grasping, trying to find something to help her in her misery! So, I guess I will dote on her poor sick body tomorrow!

She is showing off her new pjs and necklace.
Arg! Time to quit, Emma just faceplanted into my computer!
