We are having a blast at camp already. Fireworks were fantastic from the boat, the girls are loving the water. Sydy is hurling herself off of the dock. Sawyer loves to play in the sand and swim in the lake.
We wrapped up private lessons the other day and I am so happy at their progress. Sydy can swim a little bit without a floatation belt. She amazes me- I love watching her keeping her head up as she swims without help. She doesn't even panic when she goes under water. She loves jumping into the pool as much as she loves jumping off of the dock at the lake. Sawyer has made huge progress in her swimming and loves to swim with her float belt on. We will pick lessons back up in the fall and I can't wait to see Sawyer in group lessons. She will be awesome!
Sawyer is now in her big girls bed at home. The transition was seamless as I suspected it might be. She is used to sleeping in a big girls bed as she and Sydy share a room at camp. We used to have the two twin mattresses on the floor at camp but I just recently put the beds back on their frames and moved them side by side. I pretend to be irritated when I hear them chatting, but secretly, I love listening to them chat. Usually Syd gets irritated and tells Soybean to be quiet. My girl likes her sleep!
Syd got another haircut. I had it cut even shorter and it is so adorable. I love it. Even when the bangs grow out, I will still keep it short. So cute!
Her birthday celebration with friends was so fun. Photos and stories to come soon enough.
The girls and I are heading to camp tomorrow with our friends Julia and Sarah. I love having teen and tween friends around. They love my girls and my girls love them. I will have lots of photos to share when we get back from our visit.
Here are a few photos from our visit to camp over the 4th of July.
Squishy nose kisses. Just before we took the boat out for fireworks.
We took the boat out on the water to watch the fireworks. Little did we know that they were shooting the fireworks off of a barge and not off of the land. We actually had to move our boat away from the barge just a little. You can see how close we were. I was only shooting at a focal length of 35mm!!! So fun. Soybean was a little freaked out at the echo off of the mountains. But she warmed up to them pretty quickly. Sydy loved it.
