Our Raymond Routine

Well, we're having a great time in Raymond! I'm staying at Carmen and Adam's house - which turned out to be a really lucky choice because they have air conditioning!! Yea!! It's been REALLY warm here. When I'm pregnant my inner thermostat always seems to be running in overdrive - so the hot summer weather is especially uncomfortable. But thanks to the air conditioning I'm doing quite well.

So we've had a run and busy time this week. Each morning Carmen takes the girls (Jill, Zoe and Soleil) to the pool at 8:30 for the Raymond "Swim Club" The lifeguards run it and it was a little crazy...so Wednesday Carmen and Virginia asked if they could help as Volunteer Coaches...and since then it's all gone much more smoothly. I usually stay home with Peirce and Zane and then at 9:30 the boys and I head off to story time at the library. They do crafts at their story time! Peirce is in his glory. In the afternoon we either go swimming or the girls go to the Reading Club at the library.

We've got LOTS of cousins to play with. Last night everyone was at Carmen's for dinner. There were 11 grandchildren (only 2 are missing!)...and we have one of every age it seems from 10 on down...and even a new one planned for 1998. They're all pretty good kids - but no matter what, when you get 11 kids together it gets a little c-r-a-z-y! ...but we're loving it.
