GO WAVES!! The last swim meet was a home meet and the coaches decided it would be mighty fun to have a PIRATE THEME! Kids were encouraged to dress like a pirate. One of the coaches commandeered a large vessel and flew the pirate flag! (Okay, maybe not a large vessel, but a boat nonetheless.) The kids had a great time. I had a lot of "tattoos" and some of them were of the pirate theme. So, Kara helped me cut them out and we gave them out to coaches and swimmers.
Lilah won 1st, 2nd, & 3rd! GO LILAH!
The large vessel - now Pirate owned.
The coaches cheering the swimmers on. ARRRG!
Kara and me
Make a funny face time...
I can't help but laugh with her all the time.
Lilah was waiting for the race to begin and zoned out.
And she is off! (Notice how she jumped in AFTER the other girl...)
GO LI! Swim! Kick! Pull! (She is almost caught up!)
(Lilah passes her!)
Lilah makes it to the wall before the other team!
(Sadly, this was a second place win because it was a relay.)
Wyatt is cheering on the swimmers with Daddy.
Kara lookin' all "observant".
This was SO cute... Wyatt is standing on Dad's lap and Lilah comes over to talk to Dad. Wyatt just reaches out and hugs Li and she returns the hug. It lasted for several seconds.
Then, Wyatt went in for the kill... The "Torture Lilah" kicked in and he went for her hair.
Wyatt is a lap hopper. Here, is is demonstrating to his Aunt Kara how to pull hair out.
Back in Dad's lap... Can you tell Wy is getting tired?
I am packing up one of our chairs and Kara seemed to think it was picture time.
Look how I pack that chair up - it should be an Olympic sport and I'd get a GOLD medal!
See?! ARRRRGGGH! I am so strong.
(Never mind the fact that the chair isn't all the way in the bag. What counts is all the strange looks I got from the kids that were walking by.)
Kara said something that made us laugh. Maybe it is just her face.
I had the camera and Wyatt started to crawl over to me...I thought he wanted my camera OR me. I was wrong. Duh, I had his sippy cup in my chair's cup holder. THAT is what he went for.
At this point he is jumping UP and DOWN, UP and DOWN, and slamming into me. He likes this game.
Back to Dad.
Now, in Aunt Kara's arms.
Pouty face? Does someone want a lolli?
Strange face time. This is my "HUH? WHO ME?" look. I know...I've perfected it. I am pretty awesome.
Lilah's ribbons! What a fantastic little swimmer we have on our hands. She is already looking forward to next year's swim team.
On the back of each ribbon is a sticker with the information of that race so Li can always remember it.
A few videos. (Side Note: I've had this camera for a while now...my dumb a** self didn't know it could video. Kara bought the same camera and didn't know how to make it work, but she figured it out in about 5 1/2 seconds. So, I got video with my nice camera! YAY!)
Playing with Grandma is such fun!
While I was uploading pictures to this blog, Sage was hard at work. Hard at work snoring. Bless her heart.
