Weekend Update: just keep swimmin'.....

*Thanks for all your sweet comments/texts/etc from Friday....I am annoyed we have to go back, but if it is one step closer to figuring this all out, so be it. I was told he should have a clear diet on Thursday prior to the appointment, which should be a lot of fun. I was going to let him go to school Thursday, but might have to rethink that. I will update post Thursday as well!*

This weekend we had a swim meet in Raleigh (so, not far) on both days. Andy has started this program too, which is a whole new level of stress on this momma. He has only had three practices leading up to this meet, so not many at all. He was beyond excited, so that was great! And you know what? The kid did amazing. He swam 25s the first day and 50s the second and it was awesome! He wasn't even nervous!

We had a relaxed night Friday night. Boys played outside and then came in for dinner... Andy ate a carton of strawberries... with his helmet on...

 Then went on the hunt for more food.

 ...found some yogurt that looked good....

...then proceeded to eat four of them....

 (seriously he should be popping up a storm with this kind of diet....)

 then hugged it out with Bru.... #bestdog

Eddie left Saturday morning early for the probowl down in Orlando. Andy was up at the crack of dawn- no clue what that was about but whatever. We had to leave the house at 11 and I swear I spent the whole morning running like a crazy person, walking Bruce, cooking breakfast, packing TWO swim bags, switching the laundry into the dryer, etc etc etc.... the morning FLEW by. Had to take a few pics before:

 Setting up some music to get everyone hype hahah

We arrived to the meet and the boys went down on the deck- no parents allowed again. I wrote all of their events on their arms and they went down.

Cal totally took Andy under this wing and showed him where to look to see which event we were on and where to line up. It was sweet to watch it all.

 Warm ups:

The boys both swam GREAT and I was so super proud of Andy for doing it. He was SUPER proud too, which was great to see. Sweet boy has had a lot going on, so for him to power through something like this is just awesome.

We ran home to let Bruce out and change clothes, and then we ran out to Andy's basketball game! He was so excited. 

 The Orange Destroyers did great and pulled off the victory!

his feet.....

Sunday morning we were back at it- lots of excitement and zero nerves! 

Sunday was the longer meet- boys swam 50s and Cal swam 100 free as well. It was AWESOME!

That was pretty much our weekend... we had low key nights and some good snuggling.

Next weekend, Eddie and I are heading to the big game....!!! OMG! My next "weekend update" will be a good one!
