Week Two of Swim Lessons and other news.

This week is going under water week. Yesterday was John's first day at going all the way under water. I really was not sure how it was going to go. However, John did really well. I think he was surprised, but there were no tears, no sucking in the water, and he wanted to do it again. We will practice again tomorrow morning, so hopefully it goes just as well.

A few days ago we enjoyed a family dinner of steak, potatoes and green beans. This was John's first attempt with steak and he ate every last bit of it along with all of his potato and green beans. I hope Taylor ends up being just as good of an eater. Poor Mr. Poindexter is seeing less and less table food from John hitting the floor, but John makes sure to give him plenty of doggie treats.

I completely forgot to post an update on my appointments with Taylor. My last appointment was almost two weeks ago at 24 weeks. Today we are 26 weeks along. I went in for a normal check up to check how my blood pressure was doing and to listen to Taylor's heart beat with the doppler. The Dr had a hard time finding her heart beat and thought she heard it going down. So we walked down the the ultrasound room to get a better look at her heart. Everything was great with Taylor and her heart. It was a little scary for me at the moment, but a relief to see her moving around, her hands, and her tiny feet.

My next appointment is at 29 weeks on August 4th! Getting closer to the finish line.
