Tre's first day at Karate!

Today was Tre's first day of Karate. I really think he enjoyed it! It was sooo so cute to watch!

William tries so so hard to be like his brother and he was trying so hard to swim with his new Toy Story kick board.

We had some fun with our underwater camera to see what Tre was doing under there!

learning to swim

My sister Allison taught swimming lessons for years and is going to teach Tre and William this summer (or try anyway). We've gotten a head start with Tre and have really realized how much determination he has. He won't give up! Every time we go to the pool that is all he wants to do. TRY to swim. We are really proud.

The next few posts are going to be of him trying.

Move is complete!

sorry it's been so long! We've been so so busy! I actually have videos and pictures saved to post on here, but it'll have to wait. I am still in bed and don't want to get up :)

Update:

We have moved out of our house in New Orleans and into our new apartment. It's almost all decorated and moved into and we hope to sleep there tonight. I think the kids love their room, so that makes me happy. We closed on the house yesterday and that makes me thrilled!

Jack leaves a week from today. It makes me so sad, but as always, once you hear about a deployment and soak in the reality of it, I am always ready to just get it started. I think all military wives get like that.

Funny Story:

Jack is a dipper. I hate it, but have learned that trying to make him quit isn't going to work. He has to decide on his own. Tre has never really asked me what it was, but yesterday he found a few cans and asked. I told him to ask his daddy. Later, Jack came home and that was the first thing Tre did. Jack told him it was poison! I kinda laughed because once Tre realizes what poison is, he is going to give Jack a harder time than I do. Jack said that was his plan. I hope it works!!!!

Wondering...

Tre hasn't had accidents at night for weeks. Jack left for training Sunday and he's had an accident Monday night AND Tuesday night. I wonder if it's because he's gone. I think it's subconscious because he is soo upset with himself when he does, but still. I just wonder. I feel bad for him!

P.S. I feel bad for me too. I hate changing the sheets on his top bunk bed. It's HARD!
