Emmett update

In the past weeks, since I've posted, Emmett has spent 3 straight weeks at swim lessons AND he FINALLY passed to level 2!!!!
He can swim the whole length of the people (without stopping!) front crawl and back stroke style. This is a HUGE accomplishment for my nervous nelly...I'm so proud of him. :)

This photo is the fence in the backyard. The boys have a buddy that lives directly behind them and they worked for weeks to dig a hole big enough to crawl through to get to each other's houses.

Emmett did a week of lacrosse camp and did AWESOME! The coach even hollered at him (lax coaches are all business NOT warm and fuzzy like soccer coaches) and I thought for sure he was in trouble. So, imagine my suprise when they used him for an example of how to properly field a ground ball. The coaches kept saying, "and this is the first time he's ever played...." More importantly, he loved it.

He's also been battling his asthma. His numbers are down lower then they have ever been (even since when he was diagnosed at age 3) and he's on a oral and inhaled steroids multiple times a day. This has been interferring w/ his sleep a little bit and my quiet, sweet, angelic boy has not been his self lately.

Oh, and his second tooth fell out :).
