Sisterly Love & Medusa Hair

Luckily, the week past had a lot less drama in store for us than the week that preceded it. Everyone is still breathing while sporting their normal flesh-tone color. That meant we could go back to focusing on being a family.


The girls have continued to form a close bond with one another this summer. If one of them wakes up before the other from a nap, there's always concern as to where their sister is at when they are solo with Mom or Dad. When she first gets up, Braelyn asks to hop into bed with her sister so she can give her hugs and kisses to start the morning.

Hopefully this type of affection will continue as they get older.



Braelyn's hair has become quite the topic of conversation lately. She's reached the unfortunate time where her hair really isn't long enough to cut but it's long enough to be constantly getting in her way. Add into the equation that she quickly pulls out any bands Mom uses for pony or pig tails and her hair seems in a constant state that looks like this:



Okay, well maybe it isn't quite THAT bad all the time but it can get interesting.


Gwendolyn continues her physical progress. She went to the pool with her at-home P.T. today and did pretty well. Since they went to a local community center this time and not the hospital, Mom had Braelyn in tow. So, she was able to spend time with her sister while Gwen got her session. Last week, Gwendolyn's therapist at the hospital was out of town so we thought it would be a nice addition for us to try this out and make sure she didn't have a lost week of aqua therapy. We've been so blessed with her progress using the pool for her therapy that we didn't want to miss the opportunity.



Plus the fact, to Gwen it's akin to having a pool party with a friend so she's just fine with it.


Until later...
