Swim lessons!

So while Chris is on the road for 9 days at a time, I try to stay as busy as I can with Jace!  I decided to start doing swimming lessons the little guy. He's becoming way more interested in the water so I figured its a great time to start. Ashley, Bowen's mom wanted to do them too. We found this great girl who used to swim in college...and the best part, she comes to our apartment!! That makes it SO easy!! 

She has lots of little tricks to get the boys blowing bubbles, floating ok their back and even dunking their head.  We sing wheels on the bus and make the motor sound by blowing bubbles.  And she taught them to blow bubbles by humming...which I never really thought of!  We do humpy dumpty to get the boys to go off the edge into our arms.  And we are even teaching them how to get out of the pool without stairs or a ladder.  Jace had been doing great and seems to really like it. The only time he gets a little nervous is when I lay him backward and his ears touch the water...but our swim coach says that's totally normal. We are doing three lessons this week and three next week when Chris is back in town. :)
