Out for some fresh air

Ella started back to swim lessons this morning. Everyone must have made their "get-fit" New Year's resolutions because the Y was packed!! Ella is starting to tread water for a few seconds on her own, but that is about as far as it goes. She's not afraid to get in, get her face wet and will even go under water but she hates when they try to get her to float on her back. This is her 3rd session of swim lessons.

Justin and I had full test coffee this morning (instead of our usual 1/2 caff) and it seemed to boost our productivity...we were buzzing a bit and got some cleaning and organizing done around the house. We might have to make that a permanent switch!
It warmed up to about 46 degrees today so we went out for a walk and took Ella and Si to the school to play. Poor Mas was still sick and was snoozing at home.

The kids had a blast running around and climbing on everything and rolling down the hill. I love El's face when she gets to the bottom :)













































Silas climbed on everything there was - he had a bit of trouble here...







Up, down - oops, on the ground.













Cry for a bout...
















Then comes the pout.
