Wow, Computer crash, swimming and three word sentences

Since my last post, I have tried to finish a master's class while working from my husband's computer since mine all of a sudden died. It was unfortunately fourteen days out of our one year warranty. Dell wanted to charge me sixty-two dollars just to talk through their trouble shooting, instead of listening to me about the problem. You see, my husband had the exact problem with his Dell about two months ago which resulted in a new charger, new battery and new motherboard! Lucky for my husband, his was still under warranty. So I now have a dead computer and no money to replace it.
On a much happier topic, Ari and I have been practicing our swimming on Wednesday's at the local swim center. The pool is zero depth so it is great for tiny little babies just learning the ropes, and after they swim for an hour they get a chocolate milk. Ari is now enthralled and wants to schwimmen all the time. She has also moved on to speaking in two and three word sentences just over the last week. It is amazing how fast she is picking things up! From 'meine rot schuhe' to 'I get down' the sentences are rolling of her tongue, it is so exciting! I have to beef up my German to include more complete sentences that are age appropriate for my 18 month old. Maybe it's time to enroll Daddy in a refresher course for his Spanish so we can start her on a new language.
There are so many things on my plate right now, but they are all extra exciting and I can't wait to keep up with this more regularly =) Until next time...
