Is it AUGUST already??

Okay... I know, I know. I have not posted in a LONG time. My sister, Eve, has really been giving me a hard time about not making any new posts. We have a had a great summer so far. We spend almost every day at the pool. Charlie and Mary Frances LOVE it. It is amazing the progress Charlie has made in swimming this summer. The beginning of the summer he didn't want to get his face wet, and now he is jumping in and picking up dive rings from the bottom of the pool. Plus, he swims like a fish now. He just needed to realize it for himself that he COULD do it. Mary Frances does really well too. She needs floaties, but she is gaining more confidence. She floats on her back (with floaties) and kicks her feet to go all over the pool. It helps me too, because they get really tired and take a good nap. Unfortunately... I get really tired too. ;)

We have also been potty training Mary Frances. She is doing great. I am about ready to give away my diaper stash... I am hesitant to write this, but we have been "accident free" now for almost a week. She even stays dry through naps and bedtime. HOORAY!!!

Here are some pictures I took last night of them playing in our room.
