Swim lessons are going well. Here is a picture of the kids getting ready to go.
Still have lots to do to get ready for Andrew's party. I made the goody bags and got the craft sorted so it will be easier for the kids to do. I am having them decorate a Christmas picture frame and I will take a picture by the tree and send it in the thank you card. David wants the kids to play in the water but we'll see. I told everyone to bring their suits just in case. Not sure what the day will bring. I am only having them do one craft activity now instead of 2 or 3. I decided it would probably just be too chaotic with that many kids. They get to make 2 frames if they want to. David has told me that he doesn't really like the idea of nothing for the kids to do besides a craft b/c he's never heard of a party like that. I think that's why he wants to do the water stuff also. Oh well, I can't please everybody!!!Last night I gave Grace a bath and after we sat on the couch to put on lotion and we sang some of the songs from her class. It was so cute to see her do all the motions to the songs. She kept telling me in her own sign language what song she wanted. It was nice b/c there was no competition or rivalry. It's a rare moment when I get to do things like that with Grace. She can be a little stubborn and forceful most of the time. Like right now....she wants to play with my camera and I won't let her so she keeps waving it around and crying and hit me in the face. I am patient until I get hit in the face with something and that just irritates me. So I just set her on the floor and she can throw her fit and when she's done we will do something else. I know, I know....paybacks.
