Dives 25 & 26, Day 10 at the gym!

Will is getting just the right amount of sleep for a successful day.  I put him in bed again at 7:30 last night and he woke up at 6:50, ready to go!  Perfect!  Dive 25 was another peaceful dive.  Will watched his Mickey Mouse DVD while did my usual routine.  I am so blessed to have a good little diver.  I didn't even have to help him pop his ears this morning and he happily sets back with his hood (space-helmet) on watching television.  Thanks Will for being such a good boy! Day 10 (2 weeks down!) Today was another pretty fabulous day!  Will started with his new favorite trick.   While Will was spinning, Tiffany and I were talking about when he first started at the gym in May 2013.  He has made such huge gains since then.  If you have time you should go back in the blog and look at some of those videos.  I was going to post some here to show you, but they are on my hard drive back home.  It really is incredibl...

Dive 23 & 24 Day 9 at the gym

Miss Cheryl is back this morning.  Will is happy to see her.  We climb aboard the spaceship and we're off on Dive 23!  Will is happy with the Disney Channel again, while I journal and start a new book.  I really like that I can read while diving.  I just don't get a chance to read (or journal) when I'm home. Day 9 at the gym Will had a great day today.  The day started off with a rep from NuMotion coming by to give Zipper and Alfie a checkup.  I have a really hard time getting ahold of anybody from the STL office so when I got here last week Tiffany sent her guy an e-mail and ta da... He ordered a new seat belt for Zipper and fixed the handle on Alfie.  Awesome!  Before Mr. Robert left he got to see Will get himself into Zipper and then show off with a few donuts around the office! On to the greatness of the day.  Where do I begin... Will is such a hard worker, I'm just so proud of him.  He is getting so good at popping bubbles...

Dives 21 & 22- Day 8 at the gym

Will woke up at 6:30am (on his own) but then stayed in bed until 7:00.  I think we found our new bedtime 7:30pm.  He didn't seem too tired last night when I put him in bed, but he didn't say a peep until 6:30 this morning, so I think he was ready! This morning he was talking about Miss Cheryl before we even left Rezzi!  He just loves her!  When we got to the spaceship though it was Captain David.  Don't get me wrong, Will likes Captain David too, but he's not Miss Cheryl!  Cap. David told Will that Cheryl would be back this afternoon which Will accepted so all was good.  Disney Jr was playing on the TV.  Appartently Will had never seen this episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse because he was so into it that I didn't even have to rub his ears!  He took a couple of hard swallows, all by himself, and that's all it took! Day 8 Will had another great day at the gym!  He was ready to go again this morning.  He did the usual knee walking ...

Dives 19 & 20 Day 7 at the gym

I put Mr Will to bed at 7:30 last night.  He didn't move a muscle until 7:00 am! We were on the ball this morning and got to the spaceship a little earlier, we're usually walking in right before we board!  I like to let Will sleep as long as possible before waking him up, but this morning he woke up on his own.  Good deal!  Dive 19 was just us again.  Disney Jr on the television and my journal and book in my lap.  What a way to start the day!  I always think I'll keep my journal going once I get home, but it just never happens! Day 7 Will is ready to go!  He even warms up with his own exercises. Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Did you wear your John Deere green today? Will had a good day at the gym. He did the normal workout, but then he changed it up.  For those of you who have been loyal readers, you remember when Will hated (and I don't usually use that word) Miss Tiffany's stairs?  Well this time Tiffany didn't even put ...

Dives 17 & 18 Day 6 at the gym

Dive 17   The Amazing Miss Cheryl is at the controls!  She was in a class all last week, so this is the first time we have seen her.  She greets us with a big, tight hug.  Will is excited to see her too.  When the spaceship door closes Will and Miss Cheryl have a nice little, goofy bird call that they use to get through the ear popping stage.  He calls to her...so answers, repeat, repeat!!   He was laughing so hard, there was no need for ear rubbing!  We're the only passengers this morning so I have lots of time to journal about our weekend and get caught up on my reading.  Will is enjoying the Disney Jr channel again.  Gotta love that Mickey Mouse! Day 6 When we exit the spaceship, Aunt Heather is waiting!  She follows us to the gym and watches as Will has a typical Monday...I guess. He's S L O W moving at first and then he just gets plain silly!  Heather was still impressed with how hard he works, goofiness or not! Here'...

Visitors Galore!

The last few days have been busy!  Dives 12 & 13 and Day 5 at the gym were Friday.  The day went well.  More knee walking, pushing the shopping cart etc.  Here is one video I wanted to show though... a little race to the weekend! Even with a little over correction at the end that was a pretty good race! Then it was back to Rezzi to wait for our weekend visitors!  We had only been there a short time when this good looking bunch showed up!  Will was one happy boy!  I was pretty excited too! He loves his big brother! He loves his big sister too! The first stop was the pool! After that it was Pizza Shoppe for dinner.  The home of the Pink Stuff!  (sorry no pictures!) Then back to Rezzi for a relaxing evening. Dive# 14 Was Will and his Daddy!  Phil always likes to go in the spaceship with Will when he can.  It's a nice change for Will and a nice break for me, although I have to say~ aside from th...

Dive 10 & 11 Day 4 at the gym

Dive 10 was bittersweet.  It's out last dive with Mr. Luke and his Mama Alyson.  I have really enjoyed getting to know them.  I hope we see them again some day.  Luke is such a sweet boy and Alyson is a hoot!  I wish them nothing by the best! Day 4 at Miss Tifffany's Gym was better than day 3.  Will was rearing to go when we got off the spaceship.  A much better start to the day.  He was excited about playing with the space stickers on the mirror, you'll see that in a minute.  To start the day, Miss Tiffany added a couple gliders to the stool.  Now there are 4- one for each leg! He's moving right along!  After he set the bowling pin up, he got in Alfie and knocked them down.  Next was clean up time.  He used the shopping cart for that job! Then Miss Tiffany thought of another fun activity with the shopping cart.  Will had a great time working on core strength, balance, hip control, and just having a g...
