Manic Monday

Well it was a pretty typical Monday. Nothing really bad or unusual, just the fact it's Monday right?!  Boys started their new camp for the rest of the summer. Their other camp is done for the summer, they really loved it so we'll be going back next year.
Had a productive afternoon after picking up the boys. Fixed snacks for the boys, then pulled weeds, cut the backyard, swept the front driveway, cleaned and straightened the garage, swept garage, showered, put dishes in dishwasher and cooked dinner...whew...no wonder I'm drinking a glass of wine now...LOL!!
I saw two different birds in my backyard today. It makes me really miss having a bird feeder to bird watch. Maybe this weekend I'll get one to hang up.
Did I mention Dev is doing a kids triathlon the end of this month! yay! We went to a swim clinic this past Sunday to see if he could swim the distance since he's not a super great swimmer. Let me just say  I am so proud of him!! He did great! He has to swim 2 lengths of an olympic size pool! wow, he really can't even swim breast stroke yet. He chugged it out though, he got very tired but added in doggie paddle and even swimming on his back just kicking to get the distance done. He did this whole swim twice during the practice. I AM SO PROUD OF HIM!! He didn't quit, give up, complain or anything!! So proud! He knows now that he can swim the distance so it's no big deal. I hope to get him to the pool a few times before the race to practice. The triathlon will be a 100m swim, 2 mile bike ride and .6 mile run. Bry didn't want to do it this time, maybe next year. I'll keep you posted and I'll of course post pics of the race!!
The boys have really grown so far this summer. They both have grown 2 inches taller since April! wow!! That is alot and the summer isn't even over! It won't be long before they are taller than me!!
Mom and sis are coming for a visit this weekend. yay! I hope the weather is nice while they are here. I might have to try out a new recipe on them...LOL.
Well toodles for now.
