The New Do



Its been about two weeks since we got Madison's hair cut. She said she wanted it short. It does look cute. We went to the pool yesterday and Madison finally went down the BIG slide (with Lexi's help). Now she is an old pro. Taylor wants to go down once she is bigger, if she grows about a foot in the next year, she will be able to, but I doubt that will happen.

Swimming Lessons





Tonight was the last night of swimming lessons. Madison graduated to "second wave", Taylor gets to take "preschool 2" again (she did skip preschool 1 though). They originally gave Taylor a male instructor and she didn't really like him, actually she didn't give him a chance, she didn't want a "big boy teacher". She fell off the ladder one day while jumping in over and over again. Two days later she slipped into the pool while they were in the deeper end. She definitely has no fears. Madison did well. The few times I caught her turn, seems like they were always jumping in the deep or back floating. Notice her hair is considerably shorter!

New post

Well I was going to upload some new pictures of the girls at swimming lessons (and Madison's new do), but I lost them during a Kodak Easyshare upgrade. So, I will take some more tomorrow and try again. I see they have added the video feature. So, I have added a video of the girls singing. (It does take a while to download though).

Kitchen Update





So, the cabinets have been painted, hardware updated. 12 x 12 Slate tiles for floor (we hope to be done in the kitchen this weekend), Hazel White Granite Countertops. New Stainless Steel appliances. Large granite composite sink (its awesome), one big tub, almost like a farm sink. That leaves the backsplash to be purchased & installed. What we originally purchased, isn't going to work, but we have found a replacement. Great thing about the new one, it doesn't require grout.
