Oh the joys! LOL I am going share a secret trick with you. My 5 yr old has too much energy sometimes (well, all of the time). I discovered I can program her fav singers into pandora radio and just turn it up really loud and she is enetertained and singing and dancing for hours! Then she is pooped!

I took my niece and nephew swimming once. I vowed never again! We had a blast, got them out and dressed, got myself dressed and was unpacking lunch when my 2 yr old nephew decided to jump back in the pool Which meant me jumping in after him fully clothed because he couldn't swim. It was a very cold and soggy ride home. Now I vow to have one adult per kid with me when we go swimming.
