Day 4 - Swimming Lessons, Teething and Shots Oh My!

Okay, it's early in the day to be recording this but I went walking this morning for about 35 minutes. And had 2 great meals!! :) I'll add more at the end of today.

  I got Aftyn signed up for her swimming lessons today. Woot! That's our 2 oldest in swimming lessons. They both got swimsuits and swimming lessons for their birthdays, along with other small items.  I think it should be fun. I'm glad they're taking lessons from 2 different places. It might be a bit harried but it will be worth it. They only overlap by one week, so basically we'll be doing straight swimming lessons for 3 weeks. I'm excited. I think the girls will like it.

Mirren and her teething issues had some serious problems this morning. Right after I had fed Mirren and left to go walking, Reed walked in on the biggest diaper blowout Mirren has ever had. All of her bedding and her onesie is currently in the wash and evidently her binky was also involved. Lucky guy to have found that. :)  By the way, that is really not normal for this girl. She rarely has a blowout. I can maybe count on one hand the number of times that has happened. Thankfully.
Her eyes do what my eyes do. One gets smaller than the other sometimes when I smile. But you cannot deny what a sweet little smile she has!
 And last but not least, Aftyn got her 5 year shots this morning. As the nurse came at her with the needle, she tensed up and started saying, "I'm nervous" and other such things. She and I counted through each shot and when they were done I think she felt a lot better and wondered what she was worrying about. She did great! She is in the 58% for her weight and 89% for her height. She's such a funny girl. We made a quick trip to the dollar store to pick up a few things and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her. She is getting so grown up and really thinks about things. I sure love her. She even, of her own accord, chose to get a treat she could share with Bronwyn. What a kind sister.

Just got caught up on lots of your old blog posts. So fun! YOU GO!!... on the exercise and healthy eating! Way to be accountable and make things happen! I hope the gluten-free solutions are also helping you. Nice to know what your body needs, huh?

Happy late birthdays to you and your sweet, sweet girlies. I love and miss you all and wish I was better at celebrating properly and in a timely manner! But I did think of you all three all month long and I hope all the birthdays were lovely. I was thinking it's kinda fun that they have birthdays so close together. :)

Aftyn's measurements sound like our kidses... :) Tall, tall Bishop kiddos, eh? You've always said she was really tall. You weren't jokin!

Bye for now. Love, Kamber

Aftyn is taking lessons at the Aquatic Center and Bronwyn is taking lessons in Ammon in someone's private pool. But it has a BSU logo at the bottom of the pool!! How cool, huh?!?
