What's New

Less than a week until Michael starts his new job. He is excited to get started. We had an orientation banquet last Tuesday for the family. They went over everything the recruit should expect and prepared the family for a very intense 3 months to come. Pretty much they said that Michael will either be at work (in academy) or at home studying. They wanted to make sure the families understood that we were on our own for a while. :o) It will go by fast though. Can't be too different than when Michael went through Paramedic school. The only time we spent together was going over flash cards. (lol)

Since Michael is going to be so busy, Makayla and I took up swimming again. We are doing a water babies/kids class twice a week. She is doing so good!! She can almost float on her back by herself. She is still afraid of putting her face in the water but we are making progress. Once she gets comfortable with that then we will move on to another class. She told us that if she had "glasses" for the water then she would put her head in, so I guess we will try with some goggles and see what she does. Michael had two days available before his new job starts to go with us so here are some pictures of Makayla and Michael at class.
