Turns out Athena also glasses and here she is sporting one of two cool pairs. Their are way too many fun frames to choose from so that Athena almost found it impossible to not be excited about them. One of the pairs I got for her has clip on arms so you can change them to different colors and designs. Too cool. She'll have to wait a year before she can get contacts (which she really wants) for her focusing to become strong enough to tolerate them. Funny thing is we never suspected she needed glasses like we had with Hera. I had taken her to the doctor for shots when she did crappy on the eye chart. Even though I don't have a lot of faith in eye charts I thought to make her a visit to the eye doctor just to be safe since we're covered, and sure enough she is near sighted just like her Dad and Hera. Wonder if Isi will take after me and be glasses free. At least we come from families that have good teeth. I would rather pay for glasses than braces.
Here I am showing off the girls and puppies. I am officially so busy that house work is being prolonged in some cases for weeks. Along with being tired with these five it is just hot enough to turn anyone into a snail. We are actually supposed to hit 100 F this weekend. Ouch, I'm not ready for it!We had swimming pool issues the last few weeks to finally discover tubes and filters and everything was clogged with leaves. We finally cleaned everything out and I had shocked the water to clean it better and Ted decided to run the pump all night to keep the water moving. The next morning Ted tells me ' I fixed the pool problem', I am thinking 'what are you talking about', I look out the window to find a completely empty pool! Ted and forgotten to turn the back washing system off! I can't believe no one woke us up in the middle of the night to see where all the water might be coming from! Now it's crystal clear and ready for the hot weekend cause we're going to need it.
Clara and Jackson have already bonded deeply with all of us and grown like weeds. I can't pick both of them up at the same time anymore and I am sitting on the floor in this picture to get them together. The white in their coat is slowly coming out, I don't look forward to their first hair cut cause their colors are so cute right now.
Sending Love,
Charmaine and Family
