hanging with friends/cousins... always fun!

The kids are done with two things as of today... swimming lessons (Rachel and Eli) and gymnastics (Rachel).  Both activities went very well and they are sad they're done.

I've noticed the most improvement this session with swimming for them both.  It was fun to see them so excited about the new things they could do each week.  Rachel can pretty much swim now and Eli can do the same with a noodle.  Eli's not a water kid, so that's a huge thing for him swim with a noodle unassisted. :)  Great job kids!

Rachel took gymnastics with some other girls from jump rope.  She always has a blast.  Wish it was more than just about four sessions.  She loves it!  I should probably look into other gymnastics opportunities for her.  I wasn't able to watch her at all, but she did tell me that she can now do a back tuck on the trampoline.  She was very excited!

My sister and her kids came to visit on Monday and Abby slept over.  Always fun!





Then yesterday we took Abby back to Oshkosh, hung out there and then headed back so we could get Maggie to her appointment.  She had a check-up and has also been limping, so they looked at her leg.  Turns out she has a sprained knee.  Poor girl.  I have no idea how that happened, since nothing she does is strenuous. ;)  She's on some medication and we're hoping to see improvement.  If not, they'll have to do X-rays.  She's been laying very low, which is good.  She needs to rest.  You can tell it's bothering her.  She doesn't move in some situations where she normally would.  Poor girl.

Today Eli had a friend over and we had Olivia over to play.  Very fun day!
