6-year-old Milestones Continued....

Baby Girl passed the swim test at the pool this afternoon!!

She can now swim in the big pool without a grown up with her. Better yet, she can go off the diving board!

She is really becoming a strong swimmer. That seems to be the cycle, though.....strong at the end of the summer from swimming as much as possible! She'll be in swimming lessons again this fall to keep up her skills.

6-year-old Milestones

Baby Girl turned 6 in March and lost her first tooth in the night between July 30-31. She claims to not know how it fell out; it just fell out while she was sleeping! I know it was very loose. She had a shark tooth going on, because her permanent tooth was growing behind the baby tooth.

She also rode her bike without training wheels the most proficiently that I've seen on August 3. She gets better each time!

Baby Girl's been awaiting these milestones. So proud of her!

The simpler, the harder, the better!

Lots of good design appears to be uncomplicated (which means, of course, that it is)--it is often more about confidence in your choices than it is your ability to be wildly creative.
