He keeps 'em coming...

Tonight for dinner I fixed chicken leg quarters with dumplings. YUM! We almost never have this type of chicken, since I prefer to eat boneless, skinless chicken breasts. But it was on sale - so how could I pass that up?

I guess I shouldn't have been surprised when Chase came to me afterwards and said, "Mommy, your chicken was yummy. I like the chicken with the sticks in it!" :)

Today we had to work in the yard. We recently tore down a wooden play structure that was just infested with termites! Yuk! I guess Chase just didn't hear us pronounce the word correctly, because I heard him say, "I want to see! Where are the ternamites?"

We've been swimming alot in our neighborhood pool lately - and I mean A LOT!! All 3 of the kids are like little fish and we are so proud of them! Today Sydney and Bailey learned how to do a flip turn (you know how swimmers will swim to a wall, flip, turn and push off with their feet?). Well, Chase was not to be outdone. He decided to try it and by gosh, he did pretty well! He's never even done a flip in the water at all, and he managed a flip turn!



But the funniest thing was that we've been making the kids wear their goggles or swim masks so that their eyes don't get so irritated from the chlorine. Today Chase's goggles got all foggy (an all too common occurrence) and he looked at me and said, "Mommy, my goggles are blind!" hee hee!
