Today

Yes, Today! Actually today: Wednesday, July 15th.

Not yesterday. Not 3 days ago. Not 3 weeks ago!

It's been a long time since I've actually blogged about a day--the day of!

Today wasn't anything special. Nothing {too} monumental occurred.

I put my 50mm lens back on my camera. Not a first, but a {first} in a very long time when photographing our girls!

It started with breakfast, which involved a real {first}.

First time {successfully} eating with a spoon!

With a little help maybe.

Then off Addie and I went to her third day of swimming lessons.

Day 1: cried/screamed the whole 30 minutes but obeyed right away.

Day 2: cried/screamed the whole time and refused to do what she was asked, pitching a pretty big fit standing on the edge of the pool demanding to go to the bathroom to avoid jumping in!

Day 3: cried for the first half. refused to jump off the side (after she'd just jumped off a half dozen times to the main instructor) and demanded to go the bathroom. we'd just been, so I would not take her and informed her that she would need to straighten up...or else. stopped the crying. figured out she couldn't manipulate the situation. and check this out...
another {first}!

then it was off to lunch with friends.

back home for early naps/rest time. Addie's reward for straightening up and obeying right away at swimming lessons: rest time on the sofa with a dvd instead of nap in the bed. We'll see if she can earn some Nancy's tomorrow with no crying!

dishes. done. laundry load #2 and #3. diapers outside to dry. finished smocking a bubble.

everyone up way sooner than i'd prefer.

but worth it to see them play and smile!

great day.

great {average} day to remember and give thanks for!

And yeah...there were some pretty monumental things about it too!

Psalm 118: 1, 24
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; 
His love endures forever. 
...the LORD has done it this very day;
 let us rejoice today and be glad.
