Grandparents Rock!

In the month of July, we have been so lucky! We have had the chance to visit both sets of grandparents! Pictures and posts to follow....someday....no promises on which day ;)

Tummy Floats, Fluoride, and Color Guards

A few random pieces of excitement this past week: We saw a Bugle and Drum Corps competition here in Sioux Falls - it was pretty cool. The kids loved watching the bands march in formation and even knew some of the songs (mostly from the band that went with a Les Mis theme). The color guards and baton twirlers were talented and impressive. As you can see in the picture, we eventually moved to a seats where we had a great view, but the sound was a bit too loud for the little ones ;)

David and Michael each completed 4 consecutive weeks of swim lessons earlier in the summer. David opted to do another 2 weeks and he is in the middle of that session now. I am so proud of both boys. Both of them love to go under water. Michael is constantly begging me to let him swim "I by myself" :) David is a little fish. He can actually swim under water for quite a ways and he is working on his kicking and tummy and back floats.

Finally, the boys each took a trip to the dentist and got glowing reviews. They were so super psyched to have the dentist check out their teeth, and were thrilled when they walked away with a balloon AND a "goody bag." Who has the heart to tell them that this is as much fun as going to the dentist will ever be? It's all down hill from here, kiddos ;) (The picture is of them in the waiting room...)
