Busy Saturdays

Viv got a promotion in swim class, and our Saturdays got busier. The kids had classes at the same time on Saturdays until Viv's teacher suggested a move for Viv. Viv had a decent grasp of all the material that class was offering and was unable to just sit still and wait her turn. The teacher thought she should move to a more difficult class. So now we go to Gus's class, which involves me (Alice) getting in the pool with Gus for 1/2 hr. Curt entertains Viv. Then we have slightly more than 2 hrs. to occupy ourselves Uptown before Viv is due in the pool. Thankfully, this schedule won't last too much longer, but we have had a nice time being stuck Uptown. The first week, Gus got exhausted after the playground, which we followed up with Whole Foods, so Curt hung outside with Gus while he slept. It was the first I've ever gotten to see Viv swim. She really is pretty good! She is fearless. The second week, Curt took Gus to the pet store to get an aquarium bulb. Here's pictures from the last 2 Saturdays (not today), including the wonderful Mirliton Fest. Today we went to a French pastry shop for a treat and then went to Whole Foods.
