Poppa and Rara invited us to their hotel to swim just as the kids were getting antsy on Christmas night.  It was the perfect activity to let out some energy, and get out of the house, even though it was freezing outside.  This was our first ever Christmas day swim!  Spontaneous.  Fun.  All about it!<\/p>\n

Noelle was full out swimming in the big ice cold pool\u2026 she\u2019s totally unpredictable!  Like the time when she was in preschool, dressed like a princess, and was the only kid (boy or girl) who would hold a pet tarantula.  The moms were like, \u201cI didn\u2019t see that coming!\u201d  I never do!<\/p>\n

The hot tub felt so good!<\/p>\n

We kept taking the littles to the big pool to cool off\u2026 it was freezing, but they loved going back and forth!<\/p>\n

Anna Kate was teaching Rose how to splash!<\/p>\n

Anna Kate was practicing holding her breath underwater.  This was the first time she\u2019s ever been brave enough to even try it.  I think this is the first blurry picture I\u2019ve ever put on the blog, but her pride is priceless\u2026 just had to post it!<\/p>\n

Here she is once my 7 year old camera stopped acting up on me (lol)\u2026 Rose and her crocs\u2026 what a total crack-up!<\/p>\n

My sweet neon beauty!  Her matching swimsuit with the littles was too big right now… hopefully it will fit by the summer.  I got her a 6 for next summer even though she will be 7, but right now at 6 1\/2, she is a true 5.  Although Anna Kate is about to be 4, she is a true 3T.  Rose is about to be 2, and she\u2019s a true 18 months.  They all were born in the same season and grow at about the same pace, so it makes buying and passing clothes down really easy.  (I\u2019ve done a lot of after Christmas shopping, the best time of year to shop the sales, so I guess that has been on my mind\u2026 but not for long!  I\u2019m about to work on consigning all of the girls outgrown things to keep making money so I\u2019m never spending very much on their clothes!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
