School has been out for about 2 weeks now. I have been so excited about summer for months . . . mainly because I have been tired of the "school routine" for awhile. I like having my kids home with me! In the past, when I would hear moms say say that, I thought it was so weird. I mean . . . come on! It is a dream come true when kids go to school . . . they actually leave the house for awhile! But I have to say that I like having them home with me and am realizing they won't always want to do things with me . . . so I should take advantage of this now.
During these last two weeks, Abby and Halle have been in swimming lessons, which they LOVE! Especially Halle . . . sometimes I think she is a fish. Abby has also been doing a cheerleading clinic with her friend Isabel. She really liked learning a dance and some cheers . . . and was pretty good at remembering them and performing them!
So far . . . these two weeks into summer have been fun. There has been a lot more fighting going on however. I don't know if it is because I have girls . . . or if it is just because they are kids. But they fight about EVERYTHING! So often I hear comments like "she looked at me!", or "she talked mean to me!". It is funny how they can fight and be SO mad or have a serious meltdown and then become best friends a short time later.

I know what you mean about having your kids home with you . . . all my friends wonder why I haven't gone stir crazy yet with my little newborn - because I love being with him more than anything! I miss him every time I have to leave him with Scott (even though he is such a GREAT dad) and am so happy when I get home and see him again!
I love that first picture where gwen is trying to copy abby with her little finger. Abby would be the best cheerleader! and I can just imagine Halle swimming so well... I miss them!
love, rebekah
