Swimming at the Richardson's




We went across the street today for a little fun in the sun but it didn't quite turn out that way. The kids did have fun and they didn't want to get out of the pool but it was so windy that we were all getting hit by little pieces of dirt that was being blown all over!

On another note I am so proud of Gerrit. He was all over the pool with his floatie muscles on. He still doesn't want to get his head under water but he is doing really good with kicking and moving both his arms to paddle.

This is wonderful therapy...which by the way has been cut way back. We were seeing both the OT and the PT once a month but the OT went on maternity leave until August and we got a call from the PT two weeks ago that she is leaving the MTU and because of staff shortage Gerrit will be on a waiting list for PT. So we are without therapy for the summer. We will hopefully keep the OT going in the fall, mainly with the school OT and the services there. So swimming is excellent for him this summer. We put him in a swim class in July so we will keep you posted on that! :)
