Happy Father's Day

The girls and Brian spent the weekend in the pool. He loved his coffee mugs they painted for him. Of course, AnLi told him we had done it. She can't keep a secret. :) I worked most of Sunday, so Brian made he and the girls a big breakfast and then they were in the pool the rest of
the day.

The big news was Saturday he had taught Carli how to go under water. It was a BIG milestone! We've been working on her holding her breath, making big cheeks, for quite a while, but putting her face in the water was something she wanted no part of. She was so proud of herself. She kept saying, "I go under sea!" I think she said that 100 times between Saturday and Sunday. She was SOOOO excited! She'd take a big breath and go under, come up and just laugh and laugh. She and AnLi had a great time going under and looking at each other. AnLi kept trying to get her to put her feet behind her to swim, but just getting her face in the water was as far as she wanted to go for now. I think by the end of summer we'll have another little mermaid.
