We decided to take a quick trip to Lake Powell this past weekend. Marty's parents, Brian and Tayva, were there on their houseboat so we joined them late Friday night. It was so fun to take Graham on the boat and for his first swim in 70 degree water. He was such a trooper. He didn't cry with the huge life jacket on and seemed to enjoy the water well enough. We ate good food, watched movies, read, laid in the hot sun and slept! It was marvelous and I want to go back this weekend. One exciting milestone for me was being able to wakesurf behind the boat. Eight month ago I could hardly stand up without help so to be able to do this was quite a feet. It makes me so much more grateful for these event in my life and I've promised myself to never take them for granted. I wasn't very strong and I couldn't go for long, but I did it! My mother-in-law said I should frame a picture of me surfing and take it to my neurologist. I think I just might:) I'll spare you the swimsuit shot... but it was great fun! And lastly, Graham started to crawl... well move is more like it... my life is over and I know it, but he is so cute when he rolls and gets up on those tiny knees and just smiles! Ooh, I love him!
