Flying High

Everyday when we leave for the pool, Tre asks me three questions. One being if Ne Ne and Seth are coming? Two if Chino (a tech in Benny's office) is going to be at the pool? and three if I think he will throw him in the pool? Usually the answer is yes to all three. As you can see there is no holding back when they play at the pool. But Tre loves every minute of it.





Eating again





Kaylie spends 90% of her time at the pool eating. Whether it is our food or someone elses she doesn't care. But she isn't just a taker she also shares with everyone at the pool as well.






Fort Fabulous



I woke up this morning to find that Tre and Kaylie had made themselves a fort not nearly big enough for the two of them. I decided to help them and built a bigger better fort. Tre told me "This is the best tent ever"

1, 2, 3, GO!!!!



It is a good thing her big brother is a good swimmer. He shows her everyday how to do something. Very rarely does she do what he wants but he does teach her that she shouldn't be afraid. She cheers for him when he does something cool, and he always tells her "Good Job Kaylie". It's fun to watch them actually be friends.

Splish Splash




Tre saw some videos on our friends blog and he thought it was so cool. Foolishly, I said to him that we could put some video of him swimming on our blog, and he hasn't stopped bugging me about it since then. He had to make sure I recorded him swimming so everyone could see how good he was at it. He gets better and better every time he gets in the pool. I'm just glad I didn't give him my fear of water.

Day of Tears



Sunday has become the day of tears for the Kofe kids. Kaylie hasn't been able to go to nursery with out crying since we have been here. I am constantly waiting for them to come and bring her to me in either sunday school or relief society. They always bring her to me for one reason or another. So sunday to my suprise the door to relief society opened and there stood my Tre boy, big aligator tears and he was trying to catch his breath from crying so hard. All the primary president told me was that his teacher was talking about temples and families and he burst into tears saying he needed his mommy and daddy. I started talking to him and all he needed was to see that mommy, daddy and Kaylie were ok. Needless to say I had to get Benny out of priesthood so Tre could see that all was well with daddy. He insisted that we go check on Kaylie but just reassured him that she was fine. Kaylie actually made it through a whole Sunday of nursery, so instead I got Tre. It will be interesting to see how next sunday goes.

Park Fun

The park is always fun. We always go there on Sunday with daddy.

Lookin Good




Kaylie is about looking good rather than swimming. She is getting better the more time we spend in the pool. She spends her pool time eating, sunbathing and sitting on the pool steps. More recently she decided that she can stick her face in the water, so she spends alot of her time doing that. Oh she also sings at the pool. The same thing everyday, "I love me, you love me, I love me, you love me!" over and over and over. She definately has a high self esteem.

Little Fish

Tre is becoming quite the fish. He swims across the entire length of the pool. He can also swim the width of the pool without taking a breath. He is very proud of himself, as are we.




Fun in the Sun


Well so far so good. We are having a great time in South Carolina. In the month that we have been here I think we have spent almost everyday at the pool. My kids are loving it. They miss grandmas and grandpas and of course all their cousins. But they are doing farely well. Benny is doing good, tired but good. He spends all day knocking on doors and then manages to find the energy to come home and play with the kids. He is such a good dad. I definately love the area, people here are very nice and very friendly. The weather has been very warm and I am assuming that it is only going to get hotter. So far this summer has been easier than last summer, maybe because I know what to expect since we have done it before.
