Alice got her tubes put in the day after we got back from Tucson. She had double ear infections so the timing couldn't have been better. She did great despite her ears hurting, being tired and hungry - we left the house at 5:45 and they didn't take her back until after 8am. When we got home she slept for 4 hours then was pretty much back to normal. Isn't she cute in her gown?
We spent a few days with my Mom. We'd gone down for a friends birthday party and stayed a few days to spend time with her. The girls loved going in to wake her up, usually before 6am. We didn't sleep so great as with Alice's ears being bad she was up in the middle of the night every night.
The girls loved the pool, of course. Jane never put her head under water, although she did blow bubbles.
This was Alice's first time in a pool and she seemed to really like it. How could she not, I'd love a little shaded boat to float around in!
Katherine is a little fish and although she's regressed on the swimming front, doesn't want to get her face wet, she has a ball in the water.
We took a little drive up to Mt. Lemon. We didn't make it, Alices ears were hurting, so we stopped at a camping ground and had a little adventure. All in all not the greatest afternoon as it turned out we had two sick kids (Jane got a fever and ear infection the next day).
We were only there for maybe 1/2 hour but it was nice and cool and the forest is always so pretty. It was nice to get out of the house and into nature, if only for a short time.
The girls have been asking to go to Grammys house all day for the last two days. I think it's starting to sink in that it's not a quick trip to go see her and they'll just have to wait. They sure do love their Grammy.

Loved that picture of Alice in her gown...and her hair is just awesome! :) I feel like every summer we have to start over with getting the kids used to the water, etc. I'm actually thinking of keeping them in year-round swim lessons. haha!
And their Grammy sure loves them!
