It has been a fun activity filled fall for Nick and Cara. Now that she is 3 years old, Cara is able to participate in activities by herself (before 3, most activities are with a parent).
Cara started swimming lessons for the first time at Foss Swim School with Nick. She is in the Little 1 class. She is learning to get her face wet and to float on her back, which are both pretty scary at first but she is doing really well and enjoying it (most of the time).
Nick is in Little 4 and is starting to look like he is swimming. He "paints the ceiling" with a backstroke and "throws the fish out of the water" with a front crawl. For some reason, they call the right hand "Frank" and the left hand "Murray" so he is working on his Frank and Murrays too. They are both doing really well.
They both went to "Mini-kickers" camp with Ben and Cecelia. This was twice a week at the community center and involved soccer drills.
We also signed them up for gymnastics at Midwest Gymnastics. They have really enjoyed this class with their teacher Mark. They walked on a balance beam, practiced somersaults and jumped into the "pit" which was filled with sponge like squares.
Of course, they also have fun at home coloring with mom.
and just playing around the house with each other and sometimes hiding in their Ikea chairs.

They are very good kids and we are so lucky to have them!
