MNO- Pasta La Vista and Farewell Fondue

Here are just a few of the pictures from one of our MNO's. This was called Pasta La Vista and Farewell Fondue. Unfortunately we're going to be saying good-bye to Sandy and Mae next month. Sandy's husband is getting deployed and Mae's husband is getting out of the military so they're both leaving us! This was also our 200th meet up! As you can tell from the pics. we really enjoyed ourselves!

Parker Using Chopsticks to Eat "shoe-she"!

Jeff's still working on getting this posted. For some reason the sound isn't working, but I thought I'd put it on here anyways. Hopefully he can get it working because it's really cute to hear him say SHushi! Sorry it's so grainy, it's off of my cell phone!

We went to Tanuki's the other night and he told us he wanted to go with us to eat "SH"ushi (shoe-she)! I don't eat anything raw, but I love the California Rolls. Apparently Parker does too! The only thing he wouldn't eat is the avocado in it! He picked out the "green stuff" and ate the rest! (He loves it when Daddy's eating guacamole though!) He also ate several of my gyoza! It's a fight almost every meal time to get him to eat anything and here he is eating sushi! I think the chopsticks really helped and a couple of days ago we were talking about how my little cousins Gabe and Sonora like it. I was glad he was eating but I didn't get to eat very much of my own dinner!

Swimming Lessons














On Saturday we started swimming lessons for both kids. Parker has moved up to the Otters class. This means he does it without Mommy and Daddy! For those of you that know me well, you know this scared me a little! When we got there and I saw that it was just the instructor with Parker and one other little girl my fears were relieved! He wasn't too sure about it at first but then it looked like he was having fun. He needs to learn to follow directions a little better though. I told him that if he really wants to go to school (which he tells me all the time) that he's going to have to learn to listen and follow directions! We'll see if that works or not! Jackson is in the Starfish class and his instructor was Parker's instructor for his first or second class (I can't remember which one for sure). Jeff did the class with Jackson this time and as soon as I find a bathing suit (UGH!) we'll take turns. The instructor recognized Jeff and remembered that she had been Parker's teacher! Jackson did ok. He didn't fuss but he didn't really seem happy. He was just kind of there. I think it was just too early in the morning for him and the warm water makes you sleepy. Hopefully he'll have more fun next weekend. One of the little girls from the mom's group is in his class and she loved it!
