Things.Posted by Rachel on July 7th, 2009
- The Fourth of July was lots of fun. I can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard about nothing! I loved it. And all the food was delicious, the drinks were grrreat, the fireworks pretty, and the sparklers, nostalgic of the best of times. I was proud that Antonio held his own and did so well with them.
- It is good to know that I have friends who will listen to my whining about nothingness. Sometimes it helps clear my head and reassure me that things really will be okay, even when I’m having a bad day.
- I have often looked at my kids and been struck at how quickly they change and grow, but lately, it seems as if Kyrie is growing before my very eyes. This makes me proud and very sad at the same time. I find myself thinking back on when she was a tiny, not quite eight pound little newborn, and I didn’t know that in a flash, she would be my big girl.
- I really want to take dance classes with Rick, but we don’t know what to do about finding a babysitter. We don’t even know where to look. This is disheartening.
- The pool at Shadle Park, I believe, is now open. I’m just waiting for a nice, hot day when Rick and I and the kids can go experience it. It looks wonderfully refreshing when I glance at it as we drive by.
- It is late and I’m not in bed. This is probably a really bad idea.
- Good night.

Bring the kiddos to TN…I’ll watch them.
P.S. I love the fact that even though Rachel’s favorite kid (as presented in the About bios)is Antonio, the baby in the picture is clearly Kyrie. Poor second child.

LOL. Yeah well, updating is hard. I’ve also been reading the same books for about a year.

Have you checked out the Spokane Dance Company? It’s right down the hill in the same parking lot as Sparky’s. This is where Timothy had tumbling classes for a little while, the lady who runs it is really nice, and they offer some kinds of dance classes. Not sure if they have what you’re looking for but it’s worth checking into, and if it doesn’t work they may be able to refer you to what will work.

The consistent babysitter is the biggest issue. It’s hard to find someone you trust who isn’t already super-busy with their own kids.
