Here is my plethora of pictures of the weekend - I guess I didn't do a good job of explaining our crazy days......
I have pictures of Ian's Tball swim party - I forgot the part where we had just arrived at our friend's house - they have a really cool slide up the side of their hill - Ian asked if he could go I said yes, we were putting our things in the house and just barely come outside and Tyler says, "Mom, Ian looks like he is drowning" so I totally focus on him, no clue where anyone else is, he is panicking and I luckily took off my cell phone (2 years ago I had to jump in a pool for Ian and didn't take off my new phone!), took off my bulova watch (my christmas present) and jumped in, jeans and all. He isn't a strong swimmer, but I thought he could have swam that - it was pretty deep and the drop is sudden so he just got scared. Mike was like, "I would have gone in, you pushed me out of the way" - but you know moms, when a kid's in trouble you forget everything else and don't see anything else. By the end of the day he was swimming fine and luckily my friend lives around the corner - I went home and soaked in the shower!
Anyway, before that part of my day was Tyler's dance recitals - Thursday night rehearsals till 10pm, Friday night performance, Saturday 2 performances - 9 dances total (repeat 2 dances though so only 6 costumes) Those are her buddies - The Fantastic Four - the cutie patutie in blue is Katie Rose - they have been friends since we moved here - they were 3 - they are so sweet! Katie Rose just started dancing this year so it's fun to see her at a few events.
Monday night was the infamous Flute recital, I'm not thinking we're repeating this....to my chagrin of course.
Tonight was the Girl Scout swim party - my girls are fantastic - I wish the church supported Girl Scouts - it's a shame because we truly get so much accomplished! I have 21 girls, 18 were coming back for sure, now I think 20 are !!! I'm excited!
It is a total mom thing to just run and rescue the child. I am impressed you remembered your phone and watch. I don't know if I would have been so lucky.
ReplyDeleteYour dance recitals are very serious things out there. We have one recital on one night and that is the end of it!
Wow I am glad you were there. I am always so nerves when my kids are in the boat or swimming in the pool. My eyes are on the at all times.
ReplyDeleteWhat a busy week you had.
