The cookie challenge

I think everything fell on the floor and we could have made several batches otherwise. But! We made cookies. It’s a combat sport, obstacle course, and a stress test all wrapped into one bowl of chocolate chip happiness.

BUSTED

After a long period of contemplating the jump, she did it! Multiple times. And then she asked me to jump. I did. And then we got busted by the lifeguard we see every week (oops!), because we caused a scene and hadn’t properly learned how to jump off the block yet:) Sally’s on vacation right now and you better believe we have a lesson to learn when she gets back in the pool!

Higher and higher

These kids keep climbing higher and higher right in front of our eyes. It’s amazing to see the confidence boost that happens merely weeks a part…growth boost too:)

Mesmerized

We’re all mesmerized. Holmes couldn’t stop eating broccoli (whole stems and all, what?), and Meryl set up her own personal Frozen concert, sitting with the speaker on her lap, breaking now and then for a buoy swing moment.

Let’s freeze this moment

Holmes negotiated with Meryl to eat her broccoli in exchange for giving her his corn on the cobb. I think we can all agree that tonight will never happen again, but it happened! Wish us luck for when that ‘broccoli belly’ decides to ‘Let It Go.’

“Look at me”

Good grief, this kid. We were focusing on eating our dinner otherwise:) Maybe American Ninja Warrior training really is something we should look into.
