Summer Daze

We're in full summer swing around these parts. Swim team in the mornings, maybe a camp in the afternoons, and for sure the pool after that. It's our summer routine and I kind of love it. 

During Scott's on week, he gets up very early. And despite his very best efforts to be quiet, Lila sometimes wakes up a little before she should. So she'll climb in bed with me and try to go back to sleep. She succeeds some of the time which allowed me to snap this picture. I kind of love it too. 

Swim team is going really well for Nate this summer. He looks like a real live swimmer and I almost tear up every time I see him swim across the pool. Some of you know how important swimming was to me during my growing up years, and to see Nate succeed at the sport too is just about more than I can bear. 

This would be the other side of early morning swim practice (yes, we're in a parked car). I don't want to rush her to grow up or anything, but when she's able to be on swim team too, let's just say I'll let out a silent Halleujah. Or maybe a really loud one.
