11!

We celebrated Noah's 11th birthday!

Club Swim Meet #2

Benjamin and Noah had their second club meet of the year. This is mainly a time for the parents to cheer on their younger kids, who aren't yet in competition groups, and for the competition group to inspire the younger kids to join them. 

Seems like not that long ago Benjamin and Noah were the little ones looking up to the super-speedy big kids!

Chicken Pot Pie

Benjamin prepared one of his favorite dishes for us - chicken pot pie.

It was delicious!

Top Chef

We're trying out a new plan, where each boy is responsible for dinner one night a week. Benjamin made us pasta carbonara this weekend, Noah made us fried rice.

Swim Meet at Beautor

Today's swim meet was an "Avenirs" meet at Beautor, which is about an hour north of us. Noah went with four teammates in three different age groups.

Noah came in 2nd in 200-meter freestyle and 1st in 50-meter breaststroke.
