swim lessons

The other night David and I were talking about the summer and what the girls would be doing. I told him that I had signed them up for swimming lessons. So David asked if Charlotte would also be taking swimming lessons. I started to say that she was to young but got distracted before I could finish my sentence so Charlotte finished it for me she said "I too fat." Of course we all started laughing which fueled her to dance around the room singing "I too fat, I too fat." Then of course we felt horribly guilty that this all came from us poking her stomach and saying "fat belly". I am sure Oprah or Dr. Phil would have something to say about our terrible parenting. Oh well I guess I won't be getting mother of the year this year...again.

The black hair is to die for. And what with that face? Oh my! I'll join you for the mother of the year award. I'm sure I deserve it!

I can't stop laughing, the image of her dancing around singing 'too fat' is just killing me...now I must say I have vivid memories of my dad telling me never to get fat--I am scarred for life (too bad it didn't sink in) :)
Charlotte will be great, look at that beauty!

She looks so much like Ellie! I can't believe it. What a cutie. I feel sorry for her with all of you torturing her. You'd better start saving for the therapy now!

And don't worry, you can do Mom and Me swim classes. I know you just love getting in your suit and being in a pool- ha ha.
