I can't blog!

Hello all,
I'm very sorry to report that I'm currently unable to blog. Derek blew up our computer with static and the three other computers I have access to cannot upload pics. Sigh. We're hoping to remedy the situation soon.

In the meantime, a quick update.

Aerya is currently enrolled in My First Preschool, Swimming, Soccer, and Gymnastics. She's having a blast in all of them.

In preschool she is getting way more independent and approaches the teacher by herself. She loves the crafts and the songs and sings along to them all. This is the last 'sememster' that is available before she starts 'real' preschool in Sept. She is going to Les Tournesols in St. Albert, which is french immersion. She'll go Tues/Thurs mornings.

Swimming is going fabulously! Aerya will put her head underwater, can swim short distances by herself with her lifejacket and jumps into the water to Daddy. The coach has said that she can advance to the next group anytime with the 3 1/2 year olds.

Aerya's first soccer game was last Friday and it was so much fun (especially for us!!) She plays the next 5 Fridays at 6:30pm at the field next to our house. The kids are 3 and 4 year olds and absolutely adorable. They all clump together, kick the ball, run, run, run, maybe kick it again. It's so funny to watch. They play 2 20 minute periods with 8 shifts throughout. You just HAVE to come out and watch one.

Daddy and Aerya still have so much fun at Gymnastics, followed of course, by the Big Pickle store. Last class they were learning back rolls. This is the last 'semester' that Daddy will participate in. Come the fall she is in the non-parented class.
