My Indiana Jones kid...Today was one of those days we packed too much in but enjoyed every minute of it. It started out with a horseback riding trip. We've been planning this for several weeks and both boys were excited. Carter took it one step farther... He decided to ride like he was Indiana Jones. He took his Indi hat and whip and yelled lines from the movie the entire time. Jensen was not impresses and wouldn't get on the horse. Anja loved them until I tried to put her one one.
After that, we headed home for swimming lessons. To pass level three Carter has to jump from the high platform. I didn't even bribe him. When he got to the edge I asked him if it was scary. "Are you kidding mom? Indiana Jones isn't afraid of anything," said my fearless kid. Jensen had to hold his breath underwater for 10 seconds, which he did easily and Anja just waded in the water until she learned to swim underwater. That's right. She kind of tripped and went under today so I picked her up and said it was okay then went back to playing. She started to laugh and did it again. At first I thought she was blowing bubbles, but no, she was stepping off the third step and going under water, kicking then flipping over onto her back to get a breath of air! I'm not kidding! She did it over and over. I have never had a kid like water this much. She is our water bug.

Anja's getting so big! Haven't seen her since Carter's baptism. She's a doll.
Fun summer activities!
