a little fish

we started swimming lessons last week. it's a 5 session water readiness course for 9-24 month olds through community education (held at my alma mater john adams middle school). I was terrified that miles would freak out at the very sight of the water. but much to our surprise...he LOVES it!! he gets a big smile on his face and seems to enjoy all of the activities. kyle has been gracious enough to volunteer to don a swimsuit and go in. I am feeling less than bathing suit ready and have some pretty vivid memories of my old junior high swimming pool...not good.
please note: the screaming child belongs to the instructor

Well done, Miles! You can teach G all of your fancy moves at the cottage this summer.

Yeah Miles!!! Love how he claps at himself in the water! Marc and I can't wait to see you this weekend - it's been a whole month since I saw you guys!! Time flies! Hey Rob- let me know if I need to stop at IKEA, I am heading up in that direction Saturday to drop Marc off at the airport. If I don't hear from you, I'll give you a call.

A genious AND a star swimmer....setting the bar a little high aren't we Miles?? You'll have to start teaching your cousin all your tricks right away!! The video is too cute and I'm with Auntie Jen, I LOVE that he's clapping as if to say "Yay Daddy, we're getting it now!" Also, LOVE the pic of him sitting on the No Diving sign...frame-worthy I'd say!!
