Happy Birthday Uncle John...

tomorrow's uncle john's birthday, so we went over to papa/nema's house today to swim and BBQ to have an early b-day celebration...
last night i asked kaia if she wanted to swim at papa/nema's house today (in an attempt to get her to go to bed easily so when she wakes up, she'll have something to look forward to)...and it kinda backfired. she says, "no mama...i just want to relax and have a shave ice". well, excuse me...i didn't know she had such a stressful life where she needs to just relax. so, as you can see...she decided she wouldn't mind swimming after all AND relax with her shave ice.
i guess leia could have done a better job relaxing if i had taken off her floaty-thingy...poor baby.
leia had pretty much every wearable kinda swimming thing that we own on today...hey, you can't be too careful. BTW, this life vest looking thing is supposed to help not un-do all the stuff she's learned at swim lessons. it's supposed to help her get the feel for doggie paddling, since the arm floaties help them too much. it seemed to do the trick!
just chillin'
this is john's b-day cake...we still had kaia's & leia's candle from when they both turned 2, so we thought we'd recycle...hey it worked & we got 1 more use out of them...
