Ellie at gymnastics

Listen to her comment after she hits the blocks.

I'm not very good at this...






















I'm not very good at keeping up with this blog, so I'm going to start trying harder, I promise!

Things around here are busy. Ellie and Jaymeson are both taking swimming lessons on Monday nights. Both girls are in the same class, which is a toddler class, but Jaymeson has a blast anyway. We have our last class on Monday, and will get our underwater pictures back that night. I'm excited to see them!!! Jaymeson and Josh had their pictures taken together first, then Ellie and I had ours. We rounded it out with a family underwater picture, which is a pretty cool thing to have.



Ellie has gotten really good at going underwater, and holding her breath. She loves wearing goggles and trying to get the rings at the bottom. Jaymeson loves splashing and trying to drink the water. She squeals with delight every time we get in the pool and usually until we leave. We're hoping to get both girls in outdoor lessons this summer at the Holmen pool. Ellie loved her outdoor lessons last year!


In baby news not much is new. Baby Buxton is expected to arrive around June 15. Since both girls were late I don't anticipate anything different this time around. I would be okay with a quicker delivery though! We had the ultrasound in January, and know what we're having. Most of you know too, but there are a few people out there who don't want to know, so try not to spoil it!
I'm done with my bowling season since Josh or I have conferences the rest of my bowling nights. That frees up our Tuesdays for the most part. Ellie started gymastics a few weeks ago, and is loving it. Her classes are on Wednesday nights at UW-L. They get to do lots of fun things, and she really seems to enjoy it. She has a few more Saturdays of Pee-Wee bowling left, and then we won't have so much going on.


So, hopefully I've justified why I haven't posted for a while, but again, I'll try to do better. Hopefully the pictures will help!!!
