Swim Lessons

Back in June, Grevin took swim lessons from Grammie's friend's daughter in their family pool.  Grey loved being in the water and loved jumping in, splashing around, and more than anything playing with underwater toy torpedos. She would have him 'blow bubbles' or put his face in the water to retrieve them from the step. He would line them up neatly in row and once they were all on the edge, he would knock them back on the step so he would have to get them again. Mary soon caught on that he was going to keep playing with them so had him throw them in the pool where he couldn't reach:)

He loved jumping in and going under the water but would leave his mouth open, getting a big mouthful of water. Mary put her fingers to her lips to show him closed mouth so now every time he goes to hop in the pool he does the same thing with his mouth and fingers. He had all of us busting up laughing!

Another thing he liked to do was go potty on the potty tree. They did not want everyone walking through the house soaking wet so they have a designated potty tree by the pool. I had not picked up any swim diapers so we told him the first day if he had to poop or potty, to let us know. He went potty 3 out of the 5 days on the potty tree! He thought he was pretty cool :)

 Grey's cheering section. Whe Grey would start to loose focus, his cheering section would clap for whatever skill he was doing. He thought it was best when we would have Zoe clap for him :) He would do anything if it meant his little sister would cheer for him! And of course, she loved watching everything he did :)
