Swimming Lessons and Sick Kids

Wow! Since we have gotten back from our trip, we have been SO busy. Dillon started his first session of swimming lessons on June 7 and just finished it up last Thursday. I was a little worried at first because he was very timid initially, but by day 3, he was participating as much as the other kids in his class. His teacher told me that his skills were good enough to move onto the next class. He started that class today and we are looking forward to even more improvement. We are so proud of him. Here are a few pictures from his last day of the first session and a couple of Braylon and Sadie watching Dillon.








Unfortunately, we have also been busy taking care of sick kids. Since our trip, Sadie has been diagnosed with asthma and is now taking Singulair along with breathing treatments. She is doing much better now, but it was so scary watching a little baby cough her head off and wheezing constantly. We are hoping that with the proper medication, we can keep her allergies and asthma under control. Last Friday, Dillon woke up with a pretty high fever. He threw up and was pretty miserable all weekend. Thankfully, he is doing much better today. Now, Braylon has had a fever all day and is pretty miserable. He just can't seem to relax and get comfortable. I don't know how to help him because he is still too little to tell me what is wrong. Hopefully, he will start feeling better in the next couple of days and we can have a few months of healthy kids before flu season is here.

I'm so glad Dillon is doing better at swimming. I bet that makes it a lot easier. I felt so bad when I heard about Sadie and her asthma. She's had it rough since she was born. She's getting so big though! Do you have any pictures of the kids? I don't have any of Sadie yet. So this weekend when you come bring some if you have any wallets.
