Today Grandma Barb came to visit and watch Orion at swim class. He even kicked his legs in the water for the first time to show off for Grandma.

Tommy's awesome pitching

Well we all survived our road trip to Minnesota. It was fantastic having so much room in the van to pack all of Orion's things. He just needs to learn how to sleep in his new car seat. We celebrated his 6 month birthday on Saturday, we can't believe how old he is already. Kevin went to watch the Brewers/Twins game with a bunch of Twins fans on Sunday, too bad they didn't go on Saturday when the Brewers won! We also got to watch Tommy play baseball which was very exciting, Orion's first of many baseball games.

Swimming

Orion and I have signed up for a two week swim class with Jill and Hadley. Today was day 2 and Mike also came along with us so we were able to get some photos. Yesterday was a little chilly and the kids were quite cold in the water. Today was much warmer and Hadley was so brave she went under water a few times, although not always by choice. Orion sits on my lap in the water and splashes a bit. We are just hoping that by doing this so early he won't ever be afraid of the water. Hadley is always making sure that Orion is near by and loves to give him kisses!
