Zoo and Swim Lessons

A couple weeks ago we went to the zoo with a friend of mine and her little girls. Alex had so much fun walking around and following Raehil. They stayed open late for members so it was nice and cool and not crowded.
Alex has been taking swim lessons the last 3 weeks and has improved immensely from being really tense in the water on his back to today where he floated on his back by himself then turned over and swam to his teacher. It's amazing the progress he has made in such a short amount of time. I'm so proud.

Alex and Raehil. I think the could definitely pass for brother and sister!

Alex floating on his back all by himself!


Swimming to the wall by himself.


He is such a happy little swimmer.





Random Alex Moment

Alex is having a bit of an issue with his baby sister. While we were putting her room together he claimed the carseat and spent the next two hours sitting in it, watching tv and then covering himself with the car seat cover. He has also managed to claim a blanket I made for her as his as well. It's pink & orange flowers!

Alex looks so big in that carseat! lol I'm sure he'll love her once she is here. :) So fun that he is in swimming lessons!! It is crazy how big he is getting...wow, almost 3! Maybe next summer, we'll venture to the zoo with you (once Breklyn actually cares to look at the animals...right now she is just as happy looking at the fish at Petco).
