Swimming

Rachael and the kids came and stayed with me the day after i had a scary morning. (posted below) and since we dont have an AC unit we went swimming at the Hodges house for a couple hours. it was a lot of fun! Tajia of coarse is not scared of water, so I put a life jacket on her right as we got there i thought she was just going to jump in, and at first she didnt! As we were just getting ready to start picking up to go home, Ashlyn said something about Tajia and rachael yells "KRISTINA!" and jumps in I look over and Tajia is floating on her back in the pool holding her breath even though her face didnt have any water on it! haha She is so brave!!Ashleyn said she just stepped off and away she went under water then because of the life jacket went on her back and wasnt even crying. just calmly holding her breath on her back. Once i got her out she started to kind of fuss but she did so good holding her breath! all the practice we get in the hot tub paid off! Its amazing how you can be laying right on the edge of the pool and something like that can happen that fast, thank you life jacket!!!!
such a normal face for Tajia!!!!


Parker just layed there sleeping most of the time enjoying the nice day!
