This, week has been so great and busy at the same time! The girls started swim team and boy does that keep us busy. I am also keeping my sisters 4 kids two days a week to earn a little extra money. I am hoping it works out! So far I haven't been able to start the summer deep clean on my house yet, but i am waiting for a rainy day to do that. Well a rainy day that doesn't get consumed by swim team Yes they swim in the rain, it is serious stuff.
Alaina and Leila did very well on their first meet. They didn't win their races but they swam their little hearts out. Leila was in the lead but Jon was video taping her and she paused to look at the camera. DOH....
Summer is my favorite part of the year. I get to be a mommy and nothing but a mommy. I love those special moments i can share with the kids because i am not exhausted or irritated by work. and they tend to like Summer mommy better too.
If you read my skinny blog, or really my not so skinny blog, you will read about this new challenge i am taking on to run the breast cancer race in october. it is called couch to 5k a nine week training. I am trying to recruit samuel to help me keep time. I want to run this race to 1. Support breast cancer research for people like my mom who have battled it, 2. get my butt in gear to lose some of this weight i have gained (looking rather portly lately) 3. Just feel healthy all around.
Over all we are off to a great summer. Just finished an amazing series at our church about finances, and boy did i need that. The weekend i sang in the choir i heard the message three times... that was meant to be i am sure!!! Budget here we come, and it aint going to be easy, in fact it makes me a little nervous blogging about it.
Here is to a productive, athletic, fun filled, relaxing, kid enjoying summer!
