We had our weekly pool day playdate with Emily, Alex and Micaela today. The boys are getting so much more comfortable in the pool now, it's really becoming alot more fun to take them. They love to splash around and E loves to go underwater now. We play games where I'll toss him in the water and he doesn't freak out anymore about gaining his balance and standing up on his own. He also does the slide alone and isn't scared any longer. Cooper is also great at going under and loves to kick his legs while hanging on to the side. It's a shame we are leaving when we are because a couple of friends of ours finally got together a group to take swimming lessons at Ocean Palms. The swim academy originally told me that the boys had to be 5 before they could start lessons, but since there was going to be a bigger group of expats, he told me we could try it out for a few sessions to see how the boys would do....but guess we'll have to wait now! With summer around the corner in the states, it will be a great time to enroll the boys in some lessons there as soon as we move back.
It started raining on us while we were swimming, so after playing in the water/rain for awhile, the boys got dry, changed into some clothes and then had their dinner under the covered patio. By the time they were done eating, the rain had stopped so they even got in some playground time. The sun was setting by this point and it was breezy, so it made for some very enjoyable outside time!
And oh yeah, guess Evan is over his fear of swings, too.....although he still doesn't like to go "too high". As for my little Coop, the higher the better!
