Summer Days

Christian and Charlie have been enjoying swim lessons this week. Learning the back float, breast stroke, flutter kick, etc. As the instructor was working with Christian and Charlie today on the back float it was these reminders: “keep your butt up, head back, mouth closed, legs straight.”
These instructions brought me back to the days in the NICU after they were born. The days when they needed to learn how eat- suck, swallow and breathe all at the same time. Sounds easy enough, right? Well, not when you’re born 3 months before you’re supposed to be.

We started the boys in semi-private swim lessons this year after larger group sessions at the public pool the last two years didn't go well at all.  What a difference this instructor has made!  I'm amazed at what these boys are doing after just 4 short days in the pool!  These boys amaze me every day. They’ve been resilient from day one.

I know we've been quiet on here for some time. We’ve been enjoying Summer with the boys and our schedule has been jam packed with fun. We had a family vacation a few weeks ago that I hope to get posted on here soon.



Sunny is doing well and definitely staying busy with all our fun adventures this Summer.
