Swim Lessons + Thunderstorms

The past two weeks we've been dealing with swim lessons and thunderstorms. Swim lessons were only supposed to last one week, but because of the storms, they lasted the better part of 2 weeks. We learned a lot, including that G doesn't really want to swim until you get him in the water. Then good luck getting him out. A will need to continue her swimming, but that involves a bit more time away from mom and dad than she'd like. She hasn't figured out how to move her arms and legs fast enough to effectively keep her head above water. She has a few more years at the current level before she can test out though, so hopefully we will continue to practice and test out next year. 

We've finally gotten some much needed rain. The thunderstorms are understandably at the end of the day as our days are typically around 100 degrees.  We enjoy the storms, but the kids are still not so sure. G will sleep through them if he's asleep, but they wake A up. 

G will be getting tubes this Wednesday. Hopefully it will be an easy surgery and not a lot different than what we have now.  We expect him to "hear a bit better" though we can't really tell that he's lost any hearing. Hopefully any damage that has been done this far will go away and is not lasting. 

I suppose that's the update from NC. How about you?
