The Weekend In Review

Phil and the kids left this morning, after getting to stay an extra night due to some icy roads.  I love when they come to visit.  It's a reminder of how lucky I am to be a mother of three beautiful kids and the lucky wife of a great guy!  Unfortunately the blog suffers when they are here, I'm not going to try to catch up too much but I do want to give you a little update on Will and HBOT, aka the spaceship!
I really think Will is starting to be more observant, he just seems more interested in his surroundings.  He might comment on the colors on a video he's watching or the snow on the ground.  He also asked me about a smell earlier in the week.  I never remember him saying anything about smells!  Another time we were driving in the car, a song came on the radio that I liked so I started to whistle.  Usually Will rides quietly in the car until he wants a snack or he drops his toy, but that day within seconds after I started whistling he said "Hey, you know how to whistle?"  It honestly took me a couple seconds to register that he was talking to me!  I said, "Yes, I know how to whistle, do you?''  He said, "No".  so I said, "well, keep practicing, it's kind of tricky."
Isn't that fun!  He seems to be initiating more conversations.  Phil noticed it over the weekend too!
Speaking of Phil and the weekend...here's one thing he got to do...
Go on the spaceship with Will!  I think Will liked having his Daddy on the flight!
 Watching a movie during the flight and playing with Buzz!
 It's the end of the flight when Will can take the helmet off, it's time to rub ears!
 This is where Woody and Jessie have to hang out.  They watch from this perch everyday!
Flight is over, here they come!
 Ben and Iz wanted to check it out.
Here's where Captain David sits and controls the "ship".

We had a full weekend with the whole family here.  We saw The Lego Movie in 3D, went out for some great Mexican food and had lots of swimming time!  I think it was a successful weekend!



 





All that swimming can wear you out!
Thanks for visiting Daddy, Ben and Isabel!

The Final Week! A fun filled weekend with family and dives 27 &28

Happy Monday!  It's week 3.  We're almost finished.  Will is ready to go home.  He is missing his Daddy, (and he just saw him yesterday!). Phil and the kids came in Friday night and stayed until yesterday afternoon.  We filled the weekend with as much as we could!  Two movies (me and big kids), 3 dives (Will and his daddy), indoor skydiving (Ben and Isabel), and church (together!)!  Together again!  My kiddos!  Will's waving to the camera! All the happy divers...Phil, Grandma Linda, Mason (front and center!) Josie and Will! I had a fun surprise for Ben and Isabel!  Indoor Skydiving!  They LOVED it!  Score one for MOM!  It was fun to watch.  Will said he's going to do it next time!  I might just try it too!   They take you out once to let you figure it out and then give you a second flight to go much higher! The first video shows Isabel's first flight, the instructor said sh...

Hello Friday!!! Dives 36 and 37

Dive 36- Josie and Will.  Started the day with another dose and oxygen and Mickey Mouse! Our last solo workout in Miss Tiffany's gym.  We skipped the yoga today and went right for the stairs.  Will grabbed his canes and some friends and got started.  As he was walking it occurred to me how often I took for granted when Ben and Isabel went walking across the floor with toys in their hands.  Just think about that for a minute...then watch this video! He carried Mario and Luigi to the stairs.  I carried them up the stairs and then he proceeded to throw them down.  Typical kiddo! After getting hurled down the stairs now poor Mario has to be thrown in a hoop!  Poor guy! He threw all of Mario's friends in the basket too.   Then he made his way across the room to leave Miss Tiffany one last message.  He made it about halfway when he fell, but you know Will, he got right up and finished the job! I think Will enjoy...

Week 3, Tuesday, Dives 29 & 30

Dive 29- Mr. Will and Josie.  Mickey Mouse, our morning ritual! After the dive Will headed over to Miss Tiffany's gym.  I guess we'll stick around, he likes working in there!  He basically set the whole day up, I only added one thing!  He started himself on the stairs.  I just stood back and filmed! Rock on , Mr. Will! This next thing I added.  The next time you get up from sitting (in a chair for example) think about what all goes into that. I think this will be something he could master when we come back this summer!  By the way, Miss Tiffany will be back for that one!   Back to Will's plan.  He didn't want me to video him getting into position but I thought it showed a lot of good work on Will's part.  Pulling yourself on a scooter is an amazing workout!   Now for the "real" video.  Will set up all the pins and now he is kicking them over, according to his plan!
