We had our first slumber party this past weekend. Tia had some much needed time away and Mikey was fishing so I offered to keep Faith. The girls were SO excited. Faith stayed with us from Friday morning till Sunday afternoon. They had a great time all weekend and got along pretty well for being together that long.

Swim Lessons
Callie Beth started swim lessons a couple weeks ago. Boy was I nervous. She loves the water but is used to swimming with floaties on. I didn’t know how she would do without Jake and I in the water too. I think a huge part of being comfortable in the water is being able to touch. Well, this girl is tiny and can barely touch the bottom where the edge of the pool starts rounding out to the bottom.
First lesson, she wanted out until she realized she could touch and then loved it. Since then, she has done pretty well. They don’t do it by age but by the levels. So there are kids in her class much bigger than she is. I am excited to see how she progresses.
Update: She has made so much progress in the last couple weeks. She now doesn’t mind doing bobs and she went off the diving board. I am so proud of her and can’t wait to see what else she learns.

Check Ups
Callie Beth had her 3 year check up and Ben had his 1 year check up yesterday. We are blessed to have two healthy, growing children. CB was all caught up on shots but Ben needed 3 :(
Here are the stats:
Callie Beth
weight…….29 pounds 2 ounces……25th percentile
height…….. 36 and 3/4 inches……..45th percentile
Ben
weight…….22 pounds 4 ounces……45th percentile
height……. 30 and 3/8 inches…….70th percentile
Later that night, Callie Beth was talking about her doctor’s appointment and said “remember when I had to wiggle my thumbs for Dr. Seuss?” Really cute…I guess she is used to hearing about Dr. Seuss.
