Today was Blake's first time in a swimming pool!  He had a blast and loved splashing the water.  What a cutie!  You can see a few new pictures of him in the Blake photo album on the left side bar. This afternoon I saw a couple of little girls in my front yard with their … Continue reading Pools and Poo – one letter makes a big difference

Saw Mr and Mrs Smith tonight.  Every movie I watch with Angelina Jolie makes me want to hit the gym hard.  It was a good movie and I loved the relationship battles -  both the physical and the mental games they played.  Totally into that.  Yep - tomorrow at the Y, I'm going to start … Continue reading Angelina Wannabe
