After we went fishing on Saturday morning, we took the boys to their cousin Sebastian's 6th birthday party, which, as you can see, was a swimming party. Due to naps, we were 3 1/2 hours late, but better well-rested and late than cranky and on time, right? Besides, Sebastian hadn't opened gifts, blown out his candles, or done the pinata yet, so we didn't miss much. We bought this life jacket for Alex last week before a different swimming party. We should have purchased one long ago; it was infinitely easier to keep up with him this way. He even jumps off into the deep end with it on! Jason was a little stressed out watching him, as he tends to be more protective than I am (isn't it supposed to be the other way around?).
