Crazy or Super Woman?? You decide...

I decided that I was going to take all three kids to the pool this afternoon!
1. We went to the Middle School pool, as now we are members of our community center and can swim there for free :)
2. This is the pool that the swim teams use to practice in and have meets, so it is very deep (10 feet +) at one end and about 3 1/2 feet at the shallow end.
3. There are a lot of steps and bleachers...
4. The babes are getting better at listening, but still have a mind of their own. So I was worried about them taking off from me when we got to the top of the stairs to the pool deck.
5. Sean is a huge helper and "blocked" them from escaping for an early dip...
6. Carried the stroller up so that I had a "safe place" for them to be.
7. Brought life jackets for the twins and toys for Sean.
8. Met my friend Julie and her family.
9. It all went very smoothly! Babes had a blast floating, jumping, playing, and splashing!
10. Sean had a blast jumping of the board, using flippers, getting rings from the bottom, and playing with his friends!
11. I am able to say that I managed to get everyone there, changed, in the pool, out of the pool, changed, and home with no hitches!! Hooray for me! That is one more notch in my belt ;) We will definitely be making this a regular event.

So...I started out thinking I was crazy, but finished up my day feeling like Super Woman!

While we were playing, Graham was busy finishing up Sean's new bedroom upstairs (he converted an open office/playroom area to a 4th bedroom)! The carpet is down and the room is clean. Tomorrow we will be moving him in! He is super excited, as are we :)
