pool days


We continue to spend tons of time in our pool and LOVE our courtyard - it is just such a sweet addition to our home.  This morning before breakfast Isaac was already asking to go out - still in his pajamas!  The girls are in and out of bathing suits all the time and Isaac, well he generally soaks at least one outfit before I get his bathing suit out :)  It all dries pretty quickly in the hot sunshine anyways.

Today I plan to go and check on two neighborhood pools, both a short walk from our apartment.  They haven't opened yet, but yesterday I noticed that at least one other pool (in another part of town) opened, so I wonder if maybe ours are ready as well.  If I can figure out how to confidently manage three non swimmers we hope to spend a LOT of time at the pool this summer.  And I hope Julianna is a swimmer pretty soon too! 

The girls will remain in school through the summer and Matt's schedule will not change much (though some of his responsibilities will) so in some ways summer is much like the rest of the year for us.  Just missing a lot of our foreign friends (summers are popular times to visit the States and there was a huge exodus starting the last week of May!)

So just a short update from us :)

Nothing like a convenient kiddie pool to cool you off on a hot summer day. Keeping the water cool may be a challenge! Love you all bunches!

So fun to see Jenny and LeLe in the pool too! Wish I could be a very entertained Grandma on the sidelines enjoying the fun and play. Miss you all tons and wish there were even more friends of yours around to spend time with. It's gotta be kinda hard. Love you all.Jan
