Swimming

Jaden has been taking a waterkids class at our local pool. When he was about 8 months old he partook in the waterbabies series, so this is the next step up. Parents still participate in the class with the kids and continue to work on back floats, blowing bubbles, kicking, and jumping into the water (this is were Jaden excels).

The classes have been on Saturdays and this past Saturday I took pictures while Jacob swam with Jaden. Typically I am the one who swims but this past Saturday I was not feeling well at all and definitely did not want to get into the pool. Thanks Jacob!!!


Speaking of not feeling well it appears I have passed my cold onto Jaden and Jacob :(. Jacob has only been affected by a sore throat (so far) but Jaden is feeling a little more under the weather. Luckily he has been sleeping lots and taking it easy. He has been very cuddly with Jacob and I, sort of a plus side to him being sick, but it is sad to not have his spunky spirit to make us laugh.

So, with a house full of sick people we have just been chilling inside for our Memorial Day weekend. Plus, in good Oregon fashion, it has been raining. Jacob did trim a few bushes outside yesterday and planted flowers in our flower pots.
