Hard to believe but Breck will be going to kindergarten in just over 2 weeks! We picked up all his school supplies, including Ninja Turtles backpack, lunch bag and thermos. He's pretty excited about them but doesn't understand why they won't make him lunch like at preschool. In fact, they don't do school lunches at CMCA until 5th or 6th grade so I will have to get very organized and do lunch packing for all of us the night before.
Breck is really starting to swim like a fish. We picked up fins, mask and snorkel last Friday and he took to it right away. Now he loves to just swim around and around at the Y pool. He'll be ready to snorkle when we can get back to a beach! I gave Bryn a try in the pool last Friday (July 26) but she got cold fast even though the water and air is very warm there. We'll have to give her a few more months.
So this week I'm working on getting Bryn and me on a feeding schedule so the transition hopefully won't be too bad for Grandma when I go back to work next Thursday :( She really likes to nurse so trying to get her more used to a bottle and get me used to longer times between feeding/pumping. I'm going off the domperidone now b/c the side effects (irritability and hunger=weight gain) are getting to be too much plus I probably need to lower my milk production now that I'm going back to work and will only have time to pump over lunch.
Last weekend, I played in my first tennis matches as part of the State Games, I lost 6-3, 6-0 and then 6-3, 6-4 to my friend Vicki in the consolation match. It was fun and I can see where I need to improve (pretty much everywhere!).
