MAY-be

Spencer and Caitlin welcomed a new baby into their home this week. Caitlin and Brooklyn are oding very well. Seeing tiny babies reminds me that my tinies aren't so small anymore.

All 5 of them are in the pool, Moses is such a good swimmer and DIVER! When did I hit the sweet spot of not worrying about my children in the pool! If that isn't an indication of growing out of the baby phase, I don't know what is.

We are experiencing social distancing at it's finest:

• Our kitchen is a food science lab. All kinds of recipes and new versions of food. LC and KETO are popular. Dallin's additions are delicious. I think he has yet to fail one of his experiments. He put bran muffin batter in the waffle maker yesterday. Who knew "bran muffins as waffles" should have been discovered decades ago.
• Swimming every afternoon. We are one of the few that get sun and exercise all in one wet packaged deal.
• We hit school hard every morning and aim to finish by lunchtime. Abe and Mary usually finish by 2 and 3 respectively. (3 weeks left OR 13 days OR 2 weekends... take your pick.)
• As I write, our flights have been cancelled for UT... working on contingency plans.
