If I Could Save Time In A Bottle...

The days are long, the years are short.  The days are long, the years are short.  The days are long, the years are short.

Sometimes I have to repeat this over and over (and over).  These kids drive me to drink on most days...but they're super-cute and growing up really fast.  

This sentimental rambling is a result of my reflecting over last weekend...

Friday was Ry's last day of school, so I left work early to hang with him and take him to swim team practice.  Luckily for me, it was the first day that they put them on the blocks to show them how to start in a race.  He hopped right up and "dove" in (hey at least his body made it into the water).  You go Ry!

That was also Cole's last day of school - his last day at his daycare.  Ever.  He literally grew up there and even though Charlie & Dean will still be going there, it's just weird that Cole is old enough to leave. *sob*

That night was the annual Dub-C 4 Miler that goes past our house.  The kids love to be out there cooling the runners down with the hose, and the moms love to be out there cheering the runners on with their wine.

On Saturday morning Cole had his last T-Ball game and won himself a prize medal.  Although everyone won said medal, Cole was extremely proud and was showing it to EVERY. ONE. HE. SAW. on the way back  to the car.  Only to have it stolen by his lil' bro 3 seconds later *whomp whomp*

That night we went to a graduation party for our old neighbor.  (a) So weird that she's going to college, (b) Even weirder to be hanging in the neighborhood, and (c) Totally weirdest when we got the tour of the inside of our old house.  The memories.

 

Sunday was our buddy Oliver's birthday party at the Elmwood Park Zoo.  The boys were mostly impressed by the ants marching their way across the sidewalk...classy.

So to wrap up this long and seemingly endless post:

• Ry can't dive
• Ants are cool
• Drinking wine is more fun than running
• Kids grow up fast
• The end.
