Recess with a relative at @tomahawkelementary with Crosby. Best part of my stay at home parental duties #stayathedadlife #recesswithmyhomies #crosbystrong
Just when I thought Crosby could not get any cuter, he goes and gets glasses😍😍 Now this will be a long process to get him to wear it a majority of the time, but damn does he look good #crosbystrong #morealikethandifferent💙💛 #nothingdownaboutit💙💛 #t21rocks #homieswithextrachromies
Today was a core memory type of day. Can’t believe I get to have the moments like this with Crosby #back2back #kcchiefs #crosbystrong #sharingmemories #baldandbearded
BRAGGING POST: Crosby today at his morning speech therapy session said 7 individuals words. I am talking 7 clear words. The look on his face when he turned to me for acknowledgment was pure joy. We work soo hard for moments like this, moments that make us appreciate the hard times and look forward to the next big moment for Crosby. #saywhat #apraxiacankissmyass #nothingdownaboutit #t21 #downsyndrome #prouddadmoment #crosbystrong
This week we decided to be brave and not hide from scary things. We participated in national walk to school day, Crosby did his first music program and he had a doubleheader on Saturday of his first basketball and football practice. I am Soo proud of what this family accomplished this week. It’s can be so easy to hide behind his disability and create stories in our mind that it will be too hard or he cannot do that because he has Down syndrome. As is the norm for us the music and sports activities looked a little different but he participated and was involved for as long as he could. Huge thank you to the staff at @tomahawkelementary for putting in so much extra work to make sure Crosby was included and comfortable with being on stage. Also to @raeganschurr with YMCA Challenger league and kc metro challenger for making a day I have been looking forward to for so long, possible. #inclusionmatters #crosbystrong #downsethuthuthuthut🏉🏉🏉🏉 #wegotthis
Can’t Keep up with all y’all Holidays! Just know I love all my Boyz💪🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽 #proudad #crosbystrong #blessed
Sending up prayers for these families and the young men involved. #CrosbyStrong
A little highlights of our week. We tried @kidstrong_overland_park_ with Crosby and it was a successful night and the instructors were very patient with Crosby. Sawyer started a dance combo class with one of her good friends.. oh ya signed Crosby up for basketball league🏀 #kidstrong #inclussionmatters #tryingnewthings #crosbystrong
He left us a legacy of values, a special place on the water that brings so much joy to so many people, the knowledge to always have respect for yourself and to require that in friends, and some pretty good recipes. He loved the color light blue, Patsy Cline and Doris Day. He loved westerns, race cars, Corn Flakes and on occasion, a honey bun. He said he got more religion in a day at sea than most people got in a lifetime in church. He died on his 62nd birthday in 1988, on the hunting property listening to the hunting dogs running in the woods after enjoying his favorite snack - fried chicken and a pint of buttermilk. He was no ordinary father, but we aren’t ordinary people. Happy Father’s Day Daddy. We miss you so. #crosbystrong
Hardest part of todays workout. Every workout should include things to make you better in every area and balance is no exception. Every time I try eyes closed I feel like I’m falling off a cliff but we try anyway. Try single leg with eyes closed and see how long you can stand for and work your way up to standing on a mat. Have fun with it laugh if/when you fall but be safe! Happy moving everyone 😃 . . . . #fitness #balance #anklestrength #personaltrainer #michigan #totalbodyworkout #injuryprevention #workout #strength #crosbystrong #fitdad

Rack Pulls from midknee today and look what’s on the bar, 495 but threw on the 2.5 after this for a couple singles.

Did you breathe today? Of course you did, but did you try it using the @iceman_hof method? What a way to treat yourself this Valentine’s Day with a little gift that will leave you feeling great!

Meditation is one of the many tools I try to use for recovery for me and my athletes! My favorite thing to do is the practice of visualization 👁️ 🧠 I try to take 5-10 minutes immediately after a workout to visualize any of the weight lifting goals I have. If I’m visualizing the deadlift I will imagine every possible detail. Foot placement, hand grabbing the bar, and etc. Using this tools helps get rid of some fears or mistakes of a big lift because you’ve done it 100s of time in your head before you ever try it in the gym, you’re prepared!Doing it immediately post workout also helps kickstart the bodies recovery system and making a great part of your cool down! It’s not often a trainer will tell you to lay there and do nothing but sometimes it is essential for your athletic or personal success. Happy Moving and meditating Everyone! 💪 😃 🧘♂️ . . . . #fitness #meditation #recovery #puremichigan #strength #visualization #deadlift #squat #bench #fitfam #crosbystrong #personaltraining

Everyone’s knows some basic hamstring or calve stretch to do after a hard run or leg day but what do you know about PNF stretching!?!? PNF stretching is a great way to finish a workout and having a coach or partner is the best way to do these, they can also be performed with a band! Add these post workout or a flow of them to do on an active rest day! For more information about PNF stretching or any other exercise tips feel free to reach out!

Thank you so much for all the prayers and thoughts and good vibes today from everyone❤️ Crosby had a pretty long three day stretch with two long pre-op days and concluding with his fourth and hopefully final heart surgery today and now has Fontan circulation. He’s now in the Cardiac ICU at Seattle Children’s recovering with Megan (they only allow one parent in the hospital right now due to COVID😢). Everything went really well for what all was done and now we focus on recovery and will try to keep updates on how he’s doing. He was even able to crack a smile for Megan and say “mama, you’re right, this was a big appointment”😭❤️😭 #HLHSWarrior #crosbystrong

We are finally starting to hit our stride during this pandemic. Crosby has picked up two signs that we use all day (more and I’m sorry). Communication is so frustrating for the both of us so being able to have something to finally build off is exciting. Sawyer is starting to come around to her brother’s aggressive love. Now I know something will eventually knock us off course, it’s just nice to be able to breathe again. #stayathomedad #dontmessthisupcovid #morealikethandifferent💙💛 #crosbystrong #sawyer
