As you probably remembered, we used to bring Truman to swim lessons every Saturday. We stopped going for awhile (honestly, we were enjoying sleeping in late on Saturdays!) but decided it was a good time to start up again. Anyway, Saturday rolled around and we decided not to set an alarm, assuming Truman would wake us up early enough for the 8:30am lesson. Well, wouldn't you know it, I woke up at 8:05am and Truman was still sleeping! We decided to throw together our stuff and go anyway. We ended up arriving only 2 minutes late - impressive, right?
We had decided I would swim this week with Truman, but last minute I told Shea to throw his swimsuit in the bag just in case. Well, wouldn't you know it, Truman insisted on Daddy accompanying him in the pool. After we had the "correct" parent in the pool, all went well. Truman's understanding directions so much better, so now when we ask him to kick, he actually does it! He's also brave about jumping into the pool.

| Here he is with Mommy, desperately looking for Daddy :-) (Don't worry - I don't take it personally. As soon as lessons were over he only wanted Mommy to hold him and wanted nothing to do with Daddy. He's just at that fickle age!) |
