Swimming!

Entry for April 29, 2008
Well today we went to the Aquatic Center in Whitewater WI. for a couple hours to swim with the LaLeche League group I'm a part of. My younger children have never been swimming in this type of setting so I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into. Well...... it was great!! Even baby loved the water just like when the older children used to swim at the YMCA. The pool is only about 2 ft deep in the shallow end so I didn't feel I had to keep searching for them. It was good for me too, it has been a while since I have been swimming. They have fountains that pour water on you and a wonderful water slide and a spot that simulates a river with a current and also a hot tub. It really is nice. It was a bit of a drive (45 min.) but worth every bit. We arrived home at about 4:15 with three of the four children sleeping! LOL! Swimming really wears children out I guess. I have to admit I feel a little tired myself!
Emily is working tonight until 8. She is beginning to get a few more hours at work now as Summer is approaching us. She is glad for the extra money but I think there are times she would rather stay home. Funny girl!
Jessica will probably start working a few more days as well. When the warmer weather hits it seems like she is needed so much more at the store. That's when they really get busy, and she is only home about 2 or 3 three days in a week.
Tomorrow I will do a few loads of laundry and then it's off to the library, then I hope to go out to eat with the little ones. We haven't done this since Jan. I think. I need to try to get in to the chiropractor to get some relief from my aching neck and back.
Ooops almost forgot, when we were getting ready to go into the pool I put on my swimming suit. WELL.........my little set just laughed and laughed!LOL! They have never seen mama in a swimsuit! FYI I wear a VERY modest suit, but it just looked like a marshmallow wrapped in saran wrap!LOL I haven't worn it in 8 years! The last time I wore it I was expecting Olivia. So it really didn't look too bad to my surprise! Especially if you like marshmallows!
