Sorry I've been such a bad blogger lately, but things have been cuhrazee around here. The swim meet yesterday was h.o.t.h.o.t.h.o.t.h.o.t. The temp was 102, but I think the index was at 108. It was just so hot. The boys both did great and both will probably ribbon. Jack moved up in the standings from the previous week, but we won't know officially until Monday night at practice. They did post a few results before the meet was over, and we know that Jack moved up from 11th place in his division for freestyle to #4 for his entire age group!! He also competed in his first 100m IM, and he did exceptionally well in his heat. We aren't sure of his final standing, but we're thinking his heat time was fast enough to allow him to hold onto the Top 3 for that event. Sam actually (surprisingly!!) placed in the breast stroke at his previous meet, and we saw on the results board before we left this meet that he was 8th in his division. That means he'll get a ribbon at tomorrow night's practice. I'm pretty sure that Jack will ribbon in all of his events from Saturday, but we'll see.
We celebrated birthday #11 for Jack today. It's hard to believe that at this time 11 years ago, he was less than an hour old....being born very late after such a long and disastrous day of laboring. We spent the afternoon swimming and having cake with friends/family, and he had a wonderful time. The adults who weren't in the pool were pretty miserable, but the kids had a good time. DaddyP took Jack out for the evening to have some Man to Man Time, so I'm watching Joan Crawford in a 1939 film called The Women. I'm enjoying this movie immensely. I love old movies, and wow. This is about as old as you're gonna get. Those hats! Oh, why don't women wear hats like that anymore? Off to watch..
