Swim Lessons- July/August 2008

I enrolled the kidlets in swim lessons this summer... and I found out that my kids are really fish, not kids, FISH! They loved it!

We also discovered something new about Little Lady (I need to change her online name... she sounds like a Disney movie dog...) Anyways... we found out she has something called "cold water petechia" which means that anytime she is exposed to cold water or her skin gets cold as a result of being wet, she breaks out into hives...ALL OVER HER BODY!!! She itches and scratches and fidgets and squirms until we can get her all warmed up again in a nice, hot bath!!!

What's even more interesting is that I had the same thing when I was in my teens. I don't get it too often anymore... but sometimes I think I can feel it coming on... It has something to do with histamine.. and I swear I can feel it coursing through my veins when I start to get it... Strange, but true!

So here are some photos of swim lessons, pirate graduation and all!!!
