When the weather is this calm we all try to have as much time in the water as possible. Woody is never as productive in school as when he knows he is fishing with Conor at the end of his assignments. Tohi sometimes fishes and sometimes swims. We all take turns in the cayuco and most nights squeeze one last swim in at dusk. The calm weather is a very peaceful and happy time where we very rarely leave the front yard. haha
he instinctively knew he should hold the fish in front so it would appear larger! haha!
cayuco spotted!
Swimming til the last light is gone
Tohi is learning how to dive down to the bottom. She is so excited when she is able to grab some sand!
a little bottle break and a foot massage. Rough life for the third child. haha

We went out to lunch and Conor asked Woody if he wanted a banana split. Woody said no. Conor asked if he knew what a banana split was and Woody replied, "Yeah, it's a banana smoothie I have to split with Tohi." We ordered one. Minds were blown.

Elena is back in town and it's the perfect calm weather for swim lessons to start again!
I am trying to put videos where they belong! First one is Tohi "swimming like a shark"
we came home from Tohi's swim class and showed the videos to Dad and Woody and Frankie. Everyone went so crazy for Tohi. Conor and I told her how proud we are and that she's such a brave and fabulous swimmer!! Woody was very impressed too and gave Tohi genuine and positive compliments. . . but then asked, "Mom, why don't you take videos of me anymore at swim class?" haha! so the following week. . .
