I'm getting back into the habit of bringing my big camera with me a lot of places, but I still mostly document our day-to-day lives with my iPhone. Just a little recap of the little, in-between things that went on this month.....
We were able to start swimming lessons in for Hayden and Preston before the big kids got out of school. Hayden did really well with her private lessons! And how darling are baby girl swimsuits?????!!

So proud of this little fishy!! He wasted no time showing off his skills! |
|
She floats!! |

Oh man, she LOVED Coach Sean!! She'd walk around at home talking about "Coach Sean" this, "Coach Sean" that and repeat the #1 rule - only swim with grownups!! |
Poor, poor Gavin. Somehow along the way, he has become absolutely TERRIFIED to throw up. He will sit next to the toilet or with a bowl in his face and cry, hysterically. I tried telling him to just let it out, that he would feel better when it happened, but he just cried and screamed that he didn't want to throw up. I actually typed up what he said- "I hate throwing up, it's the worst thing in the world! I hate the way it sounds! Why did Jesus do this??!! I'd rather die than this! I'm not going to sleep until I throw up, I'm not!"
I've been using my oils (more on that later!!) to help... here you see him smelling Peppermint oil to help with the nausea. His poor tear-streaked face. :( He begged to sleep next to the toilet (!!!!), but I made him a bed outside the bathroom in the hallway so he could get there quickly if needed. He stayed up until midnight because he was so worried about barfing. I rubbed Balance and Serenity on him to help calm him and eventually he fell asleep. Thankfully, he never actually threw up that time.

A couple of ways we spoiled our AWESOME teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week! |
|
He said, "Look mom, all my food is long!" (turkey/avocado roll up, banana, carrot) |
|
Matt decided to try T25 with me, another BeachBody fitness program! #day1 He's such a good sport and I love that we're getting fit together! |
|
Sometimes I just can't stand her cuteness!!!! |

A few of the kids join Matt during his workout. Apparently, shirts {and pants} are optional! |

Who knew riding plasma cars was so fun?? |

When I saw Hayden doing this, it instantly reminded me of a similar pic.... |
