Jack's first pool visit!



We have been visiting the pool a lot this spring...Zack was in training for his tri and it's been so hot, that we're more comfortable there than almost anywhere else! These pics were from Jack's very first pool visit - we were honored to be part of it!



Zack and Zoe loved watching Jack swim with Ya Ya - and we look forward to introducing Jack to our kids water play area soon!

It's here!



Our new couch is finally here :) We shopped, and shopped and shopped for this piece of furniture...which made it even sweeter when it showed up today and fit perfectly! Can't wait for you to visit and check it out!!

The Tooth Fairy is broke.



Zack used his teeth to open a water bottle yesterday and ended up pretty much pulling another tooth out (Chris helped a bit...). The Tooth Fairy visited again last night - and left Zack a crisp $5 bill. We're thinking (hoping) this is the last one for a while...

Zoe had one of her last dance classes tonight and got another sticker on her "focusing" chart....we are so glad that her teachers have no problem getting her to focus...and are considering a focusing chart at home :)



Zoe only has a couple dance classes left before her recital - and since she's not planning on doing dance next year, she's starting to get sad about leaving her teacher. She's not too fond of the tights, but she loves her some Miss Alexis. Aren't they cute?

Gymnastics and Moes and RAIN!



Our Tuesday night plan included Zoe's gymnastics class, dinner at Moe's kids night and baseball practice...but the weather had other plans. The Pirates haven't had much luck with practice this year - they keep getting rained out! But Zack and I had fun watching Zoe at her last class - next week she starts "Dream Team" practice - our gym's version of level 2/3 team. She's excited and the gym seems excited to have her!



I happened to have my camera at class and tried to capture her spunk on the trampoline - but this was the best shot I got. It's a pretty bad picture, but a pretty darn good toe touch - we're working on the straightening the legs and pointing the toes y'all!!

First Coast Kids Triathlon


This past weekend was Z's first triathlon - and it was so neat to watch! He was "anxious" - nervous and excited about the whole thing, but he did a great job and can't wait to do the next one. The event was at UNF and was comprised of swimming 4 lengths of the pool, biking 3 miles and running 1/2 a mile. The kids did transitions sans parents (with lots of volunteer help) - and learned a lot more than how to do a triathlon.

Zack actually ended up coming in 7th in his age group - Go Zack! I highly recommend the experience - and like I said, he had a blast!! Big kudos to the event organizers - we'll definitely be back next year!




EVERYONE had fun...and Zack had tons of cheerleaders! Zoe had fun playing with Ya Ya, Uncle Brian and Jack, and Aunt Laura and Uncle Chuck got in on the action as well!! Thanks to all the Tri supporters!
