Life is chugging along quickly in this part of the world. We had back to back swim meets last night and tonight, I did the lineup for tonight's meet. So that took me a good part of the weekend, along with regular school stuff. We won both, so we're undefeated - but there's one League Meet to go. If we win that (which we have for the past 2 years) I get thrown in the pool. That's always fun. So that meet is next Wednesday.
Roman has a new passion - Winnie the Pooh. Not to the level of his trains yet, but he sings the Tigger song constantly and we are different characters - most the time I am Kanga and he is Roo, although tonight I was Pooh and Daddy was Eeyore. We alternate "The Many Adventures of" and "Tigger Movie" every day. Roman's phrases are all grown up now, too. We here "That's alright, Mama" and "Of course!" Another favorite is "oh, all right." He insists on doing things himself. He closes his door to take his clothes off, and last night told me to stand in the hall while he brushed his teeth. Sunday afternoon he put himself to bed for quiet time, it cracked us up. Took off his shoes, told us goodnight, and went to bed with a book. Didn't nap, but it was cute.
My mentee and his wife had a girl, Kaelyn Elizabeth. She was 4 lbs so stayed in hospital for awhile. All is good and besides constant feedings, they are all doing well. Patrick is in charge of 10pm and 1am feedings, so he's pretty tired.
Lastly, tomorrow evening we are going out to test drive a newer car for me - an Aztek. Doug will take my Focus. Gas isn't going to get any cheaper, so it's time he drive the communter and I get the one that will pull the popup.
