Awesome Weekend

Holly thought it was funny to sit in this basket of balls. She laughed and hung out for about 10 minutes in it. Funny!

Here is the only picture I could take of Myles in swim class. They don't want you to take pictures, but I snuck this one. He is the one in blue on the left.

What a great weekend this was! Lots of fun. On Friday night it was Spaghetti night and movies! We watched Kung Fu Panda. Very good! Even Holly watched it. Spaghetti was a huge hit. Especially for Holly. Erik and I have NEVER seen her eat so much food! It was incredible to watch. She would finish her noodles, then hold up her plate and mumble some gibberish. We would get more and watch her eat every last bite. I think I filled her plate about 4 times. Let's just say that she slept well that night (and so did us parents!). On Saturday morning I took Myles to his first swimming lesson. He did great! Very well behaved and followed his teacher's instructions. It was 30 minutes long, and there are 3 other kids in his class. They worked on some basics such as putting your face in the water, floating, jumping into the water, and kicking. They took turns doing each of these with the teacher individually. He has about 7 more lessons in this class. I'm sure we'll sign him up for more. In the afternoon/evening we just hung out and played with toys in the basement. Sunday was packed with activity. We had church and Sunday school in the morning (Myles told his teacher he loved her -how cute is that!). Then we took a trip to Costco. Love that place. Lunch and naps next (love nap time!!!). Once we all woke up, we packed the kids up to go swimming! Myles was thrilled! Holly didn't know what was happening and clung to me... until she saw the pool. Then she screamed with delight and couldn't wait to get out of my arm. Everyone had a blast! We swam for about 1.5 hours before we decided to call it quits. Myles suggested that we head out to Chinese for dinner and we agreed. Again, Holly ate quite a bit. In fact, after eating dinner she managed to eat an entire ice cream cone. Amazing. Now we are hanging out at home watching Polar Express for a bit before bedtime. I'm so pleased with this weekend. Hope everyone had just as much fun!!!!!

Love, Andrea
