Swim class started this week for Jack and I, oh my goodness he is too stinking cute in his little swim trunks and swim shirt....makes me giggle every time I think about it. We are going twice a week, the first day he wasn't too sure about this whole pool thing at all....the water was cold and there was so much going on I think it was just really overwhelming for him. But by the end of the 30 minutes he was much more comfortable and chewing on a little swim toy (toys always help!). At first I just bought him a pair of trunks and didn't even think about the fact that he could be teeth chattering cold!!! I learned my lesson and went straight to Target afterwards and bought him one of those little long sleeved swim shirts and I could DEF tell it made a difference at today's class. Today he played with one of those noodles and kicked his legs and splashed around......definitely a more enjoyable experience. Not to mention there were only three of us in the class so we just played around rather than singing all of the kiddy songs like we did in the larger group earlier in the week. Speaking of which.......I realize now how long its been since I've heard/sung any of these songs because I DON'T remember any of the words ha ha ha!! Wheel's on the Bus......I forgot how many verses there are!! All in all I'm really glad we are doing this not only for Jack but for Momma as well. It was really nice to be able to chat with other moms and share stories, makes you realize what you're missing by just talking to a baby all day! Apparently they do play dates and continue to get together when swim is not in session which I'm looking forward to, should be a lot of fun :)
Weather Rant - Good ole Buffalo weather strikes again, its so inconsistent its ridiculous. I thought it was going to warm up a bit and at least be in the 40s and I come downstairs this morning to GIANT size snowflakes falling and actually sticking to the ground, now its all melted and apparently going to be 50 on Sunday!!! Craziness I tell ya.
Oh yeah, Easter is right around the corner and I can't wait to put an Easter basket together for Jack this year. I know he won't even know what it is or ever remember but I don't care, I'm too excited not to! I keep looking at the seriously adorable baskets with monogrammed liners on Pottery Barn Kids and really want one but I'm having trouble pulling the trigger with that price tag!! I'm hoping they go on sale maybe right before or after the holiday. I'm thinking the smaller one would be decent size enough, the large looks really big, if anyone has any input please let me know, are they good quality, size, worth it????
another bib I whipped up yesterday with an old t-shirt, I know its really big but I wanted to fit the entire "mr. happy" on it, plus i figure he'll grow into it. |
look at the adorable smiling face <3 |
