I wanted to post some random pictures. TUESDAYS are a very busy day for us. I pick the kids up from school and rush off to Gymnastics where Cynthia and Marcus both take a class (back to back- so we are there for 2 hours!). THEY LOVE IT! Although it is pretty expensive, I found a way to work it into our budget (though they will have to quit if we end up with a car payment see earlier post about our really old van). It has been so worth it. Cynthia has been taking a tumbling class or gymnastics since she was 3 because of her aptitude for it. At age 3, she was doing flips off the couch and summersaulting her way around the house. She is light, athletic and wiry- so does really well! Anyway, Marcus didn't think it was fair that she got to take a class and not him- so I enrolled him in a boy's class. He isn't much interested in other sports- but he does like Gymnastics. After Gymnastics, most Tuesdays we head to the Central Washington Family Medicine dinner gathering. They have one almost every Tuesday night, because Wednesday they conduct the interviews for new residents coming in the next year. The interviewees get a chance to meet the current residents and staff at the dinner, which is hosted at a different resident's house each week. Anyway, I have been really enjoying the gatherings, and getting to know the other residents and their families. Makes for a busy Tuesday!
Cynthia- my little Gymnast!:
It's a bit blurry, but Marcus is the one in the gray shirt doing the amazing "bridge"!:
Marcus on the rings:
And I just had to post this adorable picture of Lillian with her friend Caroline who she gets to play with twice a week. Her mom and I do trades so we can volunteer in our Kindergartener's classes. They are such cute friends (and I have enjoyed becoming friends with her mom too!)

What great pictures! Lillian is so cute!
Hey Becky! Your pictures are so cute! My kids love seeing their cousins on the computer!
I have been so busy lately that i have not been able to read all my friend's posts. I am sorry that things have been rough. You are not alone. And getting out and seeing friends is always an upper for me too. I have to remind myself not to over book myself because I tend to want to be super woman. Glad you were able to get a little rest on Monday. And GREAT pictures!!!!
I got in on this late, but still wanted to say I am so relieved to see that other moms have hard days too, and that all is well now! :)
Very cute gymnasts you have!
Keep up the good work- you are supermom to me!
What great pictures! I'm so glad that Marcus has found something like gymnastics that he enjoys and is good at. I took ballet when I was little and there was a boy from my church taking ballet as well. He was diagnosed with autism, although I do not know to what extent. He was very focused and deliberate and intense in his training, and a wonderful dancer. Cynthia looks like she was born to compete in athletics; very strong, determined, goal oriented. You have such neat kids!
I was always sent away from the gymnastics mats when we did that in school. :( I guess I'm not flexible enough for it.
