Not a grocery shopping post

It’s an off-week for grocery shopping, so I thought that I’d just do a quick picture post.

Especially since I’m supposed to be kinda taking it easy/off here (although somehow I still have not managed to miss a day of blogging since I announced that. Hmm.).

Usually once a week, we go over to my parents’ house to go swimming, and this summer, Mr. FG has been joining us after work.

The kids have all really enjoyed this because usually the only time we get to swim with Mr. FG is when we’re on vacation.

So, when I am tempted to feel discouraged and depressed about this early schedule of Mr. FG’s….

…and I’m tempted to feel sorry for myself…

…I will remind myself of our swimming afternoons. And monkey in the middle games. Because those couldn’t happen if his schedule was more normal.

On an unrelated note, did you know that it’s easier to adjust your goggles properly if you stick your tongue out?

See? They’re working just great now.

I have occasionally been remembering to us the video feature on my camera, so here’s a short one of Zoe, who is jumping off the board with much more pizazz than she was at the beginning of the summer.

I’m doing pretty well on the to-do list I made for myself earlier this week, and I’ll be back on Monday to give you an update on how all of that is going.

Have a lovely weekend!

It is sort of a mystery! Mr. FG was a little bit blonde when he was a kid, and I had some blonde highlights as a kid, but neither of us were as blonde as Sonia is.

I love the jumping video and the fact that you guys get family time to swim together.

PS: My husband and I have a long standing argument. I say it's "pig in the middle". He says "monkey in the middle". It's clear which side of our argument you're on...

Just coming out from hiding in the shadows for a while to say this is a great post. :) It's great Mr. FG is able to spend this time with the kids when they're young.... They'll remember this!
