Helpful and kind big brother

Oscar and Maple seem to be getting very close. Oscar loves chasing her and is a big help to mummy when she runs away from the pools. He happily goes to rescue her. She is a terror and runs as fast as she can to try and get away... all with a massive grin on her little face!

They were treated to ice creams today, although daddy is complaining that he is the mean one as they were not allowed them in the weekend!

They are missing their swimming lessons, but how does a mummy explain to two 4-year-olds that they will not have any more contact as their coach was chatting their mummy up via text message? Why do relationships sometimes turn in a totally unexpected way?

In saying that, I think they had a great start and Bailee was floating again and swimming under water. It is so damn hot at the moment, it is a massive effort to make the 5-minute-walk to the pool, but once you are there it is bliss!
