I really struggled with getting out of bed for my run/walk this morning. I set the alarm for 5 am, but Mike hit snooze for me twice! I finally got up at 5:20 and was on my way at 5:40. It was such a cool morning with the breeze blowing! I also found out that I'm better off running the side roads versus the main roads because the sun still can hide behind the houses. It was really nice, so glad I motivated to get up, because I splurged on DD's yesterday! And then today I had a churro, how can I say no?! I keep forgetting my IPOD on my mornings out by myself, but actually have enjoyed the peacefulness the morning brings before the world wakes up. Very therapeutic. Does exercise and therapeutic go together? It does now!
On the end of my run, a few houses from our house, some one had been TP Rolled! It's actually hilarious because each yard has only two yards and about 10 bushes, but they did it and not too terribly bad that it would be a lot of clean up. But I found myself laughing out loud because I didn't know that this generation would even take the time to do that!
So yesterday was the Zoo's last day of swim class, for a while so we can do soccer and flag football. We are trying to get a make up in there, but I'm not sure it's going to work out. BUT, I have been in tears for 24 hours because I have TWO SWIMMERS!! Both Caden and Teagan swam, head in the water, all on their own! And Caden for the very first time jumped in the pool with absolutely NO anxiety!! It was really a priceless day for me! Riordan however was grumpy old man, as Kristen as so lovingly nicknamed him and would not do anything that he normally does! I got some amazing pictures!

I'm struggling with possibly continuing swim, but again with Joel in the afternoons now that Caden has amazing confidence in the water. Riordan saw him and went right up to him and gave him a hug! You all know that is very unlike Riordan. He always asks for him too and had the most progress with Joel. So I'm waiting to hear back on that availability.
After swimming, we went to Uncle John and Aunt Amy's and I brought Caden goggles! It was even more success swimming in their pool! He could see where he was going and loved loved loved it! I am just beyond proud of him and Teagan. Again grumpy old man did not want to swim and a couple of times I tricked him in the water, which he would be so mad about but would quickly enjoy a few kicks till I put him on the step. Also, it was Aislinn's very first time swimming, but we couldn't take pictures due to the fact we had four adults and five children in the pool ;-)
We had the best time and the food was amazing that John and Amy made! We all filled up to the top on marinated grilled chicken, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, guacamole, grapes, salad, pasta salad, chips! It was a feast! They swam so hard, that they were out almost immediately driving home. Oh and Aislinn and Maddy had such a fun time playing together. All Aislinn wanted to do was kiss Maddy and be all over her. She would get upset when Maddy crawled away from her and get this! THEY both are army crawlers! Hilarious! They were like little soldiers all over the floor, so cute!
