we've got a new tradition around here....the kids get all ready for bed and then we all sit on the couch together and watch the Olympics. It's been really fun, and educational! Austin is obsessed with finding American flags on people...and asks what country each person is from, and let's me know what place everyone is in.....Sydney is constantly rolling off the couch and asking if we are watching her gymnastics....Dylan points out every single athlete and asks if i see their big muscles, and then we discuss if they are bigger than daddys. I asked each of them what their favorite sport is....
Austin- running- the short fast races
Sydney- gymnastics
Dylan- the running with the jumpies (hurdles)
Tim- downhill skiing (he's not so fond of the summer olympics)
Myself- springboard diving
So, what's your favorite sport?

We have been doing this, too, when we're home and it sounds pretty similar to your nightly experience: Nora continually updates us on the standings, Ryann rolls all over and begs us to put her to bed, and Georgia bugs everyone else. WE LOVE THE OLYMPICS! But we're staying up way too late now.
And what conclusion do you reach about the athlete's muscles vs. Tim's?
This year my favotires are diving, swimming, and gymnastics.
I have never gotten into swimming before Phelps. That has been fun to watch.
I wish I were there to hear the debate over Tim's muscles vs. the olympians.
cute.
