as I said we survived the in-laws visit and have just been spending a nice relaxful remainder of the week at the pool and just having fun. It hasn’t been that hot here in NC, we’ve seen worse, and we go to the pool early in the morning and stay till mid afternoon, so the heat isn’t too bad.
Yesterday was a little hotter than normal, but that could be because I exposed myself to 3 days of sunshine and have a nice “burn” going. So, today, MJ is inside cleaning her room which was suppose to be done the week after school left out, and I’ll be toning down the burn a little. This way, we can spend the weekend at the pool.
I do believe though that if I let CJ go in the pool, he would swim. He loves his float but sometimes he wants to get out and be held and he automatically puts himself on his stomach and kicks. I remember when I had the other kids in infant swim classes we were always putting them under the water and they didn’t mind. I would do that with CJ, but there are always other moms there and I have a feeling they would object if I dunked my 7 month old son. But, maybe this weekend with Craig at the pool with us, I’ll see what CJ does…maybe he’ll just swim. I know wishful thinking, but you never know.
MJ is finally gotten swimming down, it sure insn’t pretty, but she has it. I was going to enroll her in private swim lessons this year, but I don’t think she’ll need them, just lots of time at the pool.
DJ – well we can’t pull him away from the computer, so he doesn’t go up to the pool with us at all. Plus he’s 13 and lord help him if he is seen with his parents….who knows what will happen, one of his friends might see him. Yikes!!
