Winter Blues? Just Add Water.

In an effort to fight the winter blahs, Dan and I took the kids to an indoor pool. Our family has recently been passing the flu to each other, and coupled with the extremely cold temperatures, the kids have been quite restless. The warm water did wonders for our spirit. Bed time will be a breeze tonight.

In the locker room, Dan and I had to open about twenty lockers to find all four kids. Isabel will likely be similar to Aidan where she cannot contain the suspense in hiding and announces where she is in a game of hide and seek.

We nicknamed Caity monkey right after she was born because she sounded like a howler monkey when she cried. We never could have anticipated how well the nickname would suit her. She climbs, and hangs, on everything. We plan to get Caity into gymnastics in the fall so she can channel all of that energy.

I leave tonight for Hong Kong and will be gone until next Thursday. I will try to post some pictures while I am there.
