We've all been staying up WAY past our bedtime lately, but the Summer Olympics happen only once every 4 years, so we're enjoying just about every minute of them.
The kids and I have gone swimming nearly every day this summer, and we have designated Tuesday and Thursday nights as family swim night (which means somedays were two-a-day swim days). This past week we've had to DVR some Olympic events to preserve that family swim night.
Abby is clearly proud about her new accomplishment of this week. Jumping off the diving board! When she first did it a few days ago, I was overcome with excitement and said, "Abby, I am so proud of you!" She replied back in between shivers, 'I'm stho pwroud of mysthelf too!"
Aaron cheers from the sidelines shouting in his cute two year old voice that sometimes only I can understand, "Go Abby! Go Bin!" and claps as long and loud as he can.
Last night, Joseph decided to take part in the action, this is not a FLOP, he did pike at the end. The girls were amazed and thought he was definitely Olympic material.

Nice form Joe! Good luck in your race tomorrow with Paul. It's so great to see you treasuring those human connections. Be safe! We love you!
Joe and Paul, are you two racing this weekend? ;) I thought this was just a fun ride...?
Mom, the race is at the end of September, this ride is just for training (and for fun). I'm glad they made the time to meet together to do it, it sounds like it will be a gorgeous ride along the coast. (?)
We have also been staying up way to late to watch the Olympics. I love the Oltmpics though. Joe's dive is very impressive.
I also loved hearing how independent Abby wants to be. She is such a character. I think its great how comfortable your kids are in the water.
