October 12, 2013 - Swim Practice and Championship Volleyball Game

This morning the kids had swim practice.  Kaylyn is still fighting learning the correct way of swimming, but when she listens, she improves and she improved on her breast stroke today.  After swim practice, we went home, showered, and ate lunch.  Then we headed back out to Kaylyn's second volleyball playoff game.  They beat IHM and then played Holy Trinity B where they lost in the championship game.  CCS still got a runner up trophy because they were 2nd in the league which was awesome!

September 14, 2013 - Kaylyn's 1st Volleyball Game at CCS

So, the very first day of school for Kaylyn at CCS she broke out in a 103 fever for almost 9 days.  Turns out that it was her 12 year molars coming in!  My 11 year old baby still gets a high fever for teeth coming in!  Amazing!  Anyways, she missed the first and second volleyball game because of this.  So, this was the first volleyball game that she got to attend.  The other two kids, Ashlyn & Jesse, were at swim practice during the game.  CCS's swim team has many coaches whom have all been trained on how to teach kids to swim the different strokes.  They get in the pool with the kids, swim beside them underneath the water to see their form and correct.  They have actually taught Ashlyn how to do the backstroke!  It brought tears to our eyes when we saw this!  This is the first time Jesse has swam and he is learning to do the strokes very well.  Kaylyn is being corrected on her strokes since she has never been taught how to do them properly even though this is her fourth swim season.  It's very hard to learn to do something different when you've been doing it the same way for so long, but they are working with her and she is learning and doing very well.
