OOh!
I forgot to post about this!
Swim lessons were a MASSIVE success this summer
- 1st Ria put her head underwater and became addicted to "bobs" (such that I was no longer allowed to touch her during her swim lessons, as she was busy bobbing).
- Then, spurred on by his sister's success, IAIN PUT HIS HEAD UNDERWATER on day # 9 of swim lessons! and by the end (day #16) he was opening his eyes underwater, and finding things on the bottom of the pool, and floating!
WOAH! MAJOR!!

Spring 2010
Here's a few fun pictures from May and June.
1st, a cool picture of Ria that Iain took:
Iain and his "dolphin clock"....I think he made it in Kindergarten.
Iain with crazy hair for Crazy Hair Day, the last week of school:
Ria flying a kite.

Good news and bad news....
Oh, lately it all seems so good news/bad news....
The good news is the NZ family is fine, the bad news is the aftershocks are still going and are ridiculously large.
The good news is that Ria got an Occupational Therapy evaluation so quickly after I finished the paperwork, the bad news is that I now have another appointment each week, but the good news is that they think OT will help, so i get another appointment each week ;-)
The fabulous news is that at Ria's eye appt today she was actually able to see the 3D in the testing!! She didn't see the 3D 6 months ago. Opthomologist said that her 3D vision was meeting her goal for age 5, so we're a year ahead! The bifocal portion of her prescription is going to be reduced in strength for the next set of glasses.
More fabulous news....I get to have time in the house alone tomorrow! Other than one power-house-cleaning session one weekend, I haven't had time alone in the house since August 5th. WHEE!!!
...and, Iain is 7 tomorrow ;-)
That sounds like more good news than bad, doesn't it? Life must be good!
If just the aftershocks in NZ would cut it out, then we should be doing great.
