Back to School

I would be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to today - the 1st day of school! It's not to say I haven't enjoyed most of the summer off with the boys; but I was definitely ready for a return to routine (and a bit of free time). Both boys are now attending the same school, so life will be a bit easier with only one drop off (although they are in different classrooms). This morning's return went off fairly well - despite the fact that getting up, fed & dressed was a little challenging! There were some sad faces as I left them in the play yard, but no real tears. It's good to know they have each other. Here are some photos to mark the official send off for 2010!

*Edited to add: Seems as if the boys are actually getting along better this afternoon due to being apart all day long! BONUS!! (Although I probably shouldn't put that in writing; don't want to jinx a wonderful thing!!!)

Fishies

Swim lessons ended yesterday and all of the kids got to jump off of the diving board. Exciting!! After two weeks both boys have learned some swimming skills and are pretty much water ready - now they just need practice (too bad we don't have a pool). Here are videos of them jumping off the diving board and a longer one of them swimming.
