Don't blink...

We had such a fun weekend. We didn't do anything really just spent time together and I found myself thinking over and over, " I just couldn't be any happier". We played in the pool Friday afternoon and brought Paige home with us. We fed the kids dinner and got them down early and Scott and i had the evening together. we had some great conversation and watched tv together. The next morning, we took a long walk together made breakfast and went to swim with the Gentry's. We went home took naps and then went swimming again with meagan, Gideon and Kara and her crew. We ate around the pool and got the boys down early. We went to church on Sunday and then played and worked around the house the rest of the day. Scott and the boys had some really fun time together that evening and it was all around just a really sweet weekend.

Swim lessons

We have had the boys in swimming lessons. Grant started out pretty much terrified. I think he was more upset about not being on his own terms than he actually was afraid of the water. Scott and I prayed and talked to him and within just a few (long and emotional) days he was swimming like a little fish. It has been so fun to watch him gain confidence and watch God answer his prayers as God made him strong and courageous.   It has been so fun rewarding him for his progress and practicing with him. We have been in the pool constantly. I am thankful to be a stay at home mom and get to participate in this whole process.  And today he decided that since he could calm himself down at swim lessons, he might just be able to be brave and conquer his next biggest fear; loud airport potties that flush on their own!  He said it not me! How cool to watch him learn to trust himself, his parents and God himself. We take one step of faith and we get excited to trust again and again.

Kyle, is a natural. He can hold his breath, and likes to hold his breath for crazy amounts of time. He is loving the water. He cried some at first but caught on very quickly. Its so fun to watch him learn too! Swim lessons have actually made me a little more nervous around the water with him- he thinks he can swim like the big kids!

God, what are you doing in heaven?

Here is the conversation we overheard Grant have tonight while we were in the other room:
"God...God...What are you doing up in heaven, taking care of Mommy's Daddy?"
So precious.
