Both disks were rebuilt and the volume was expanded successfully. Nothing to worry about anymore :)

Thank you Marc_V for your answer.
The first disk swap resulted in a Resync action; whereas the second disk swap resulted in a Recovery action; which was the main sign that I thought there was something to worry about. The word 'recovery' is kind of a scary word, with pasttime experiences :)
