Swimming Lessons


Since I spend a lot more time with Lane than Matt does, I thought he could do swimming lessons with him, instead of me. So I signed them up for class on Monday's @ 6:00. This past Monday was their first night. It was cute. It is more of getting them acclimated to the water type of class and even though Lane is pretty acclimated from our pool excursions this summer....it's been a while since he's been in the water.

They will teach us different things to do with him and Monday night they taught them to push themselves up on the side to get out of the water.

I was pretty impressed. Lane was doing it by himself.

They also taught different techniques to get them used to floating on their back

As you can see, he's like a bug or turtle, he hates being on his back.


and of course, there was the singing and dancing.





Matt, my darling husband, was the only adult male in the pool besides the instructor, who, let's just say, would be more interested in Matt than in myself. ;-)



The rest were moms and the dads were out taking pics. I was pretty proud that he was in there doing the hands-on stuff!




I like how at the end they are totally not paying attention to the instructor. They're off in their own little world blowing bubbles and Lane's giggling. Leave it to my two boys...LOL!

Independence Day

Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th. We had a really good day. The weather was really nice...a perfect day for boating at Lake Hartwell! Our friends have a lake house with a doc in their backyard and a pontoon boat so that's how we spent our 4th. It was so nice.

I don't have a picture of the two of them together...I'm bad! But you should see Lane and Beckett together. They're so funny. Yesterday Beckett plopped down in Lane's lap (I don't know where my camera was?!?!) and they were both just playing with different toys like it was an everyday occurrence for them. Hilarious! They feed off of each other and I swear they have their own little language cause once they get going...LOOK OUT!

Lane talking on the "phone" (anytime he hears "hello" he brings his hand or whatever is in his hand up to his ear to talk on the phone.

Our All American Dude!

Getting ready to get on the boat


Stopped off for a quick swim.



The boys relaxing in the shade.



Beckett fell asleep sitting up and holding the ball



We were cracking up at him. He didn't know what to do with himself after the life vest was on. He was just sitting there while we all laughed and if you made eye contact he would flash the cheesiest smile ever, but he wouldn't move his hands or face...just his eye balls!
Eventually the relaxation of the boat set-in and he took a nice snooze (laying down..unlike Beckett!) while we cruised the water. And we didn't really have to worry about him rolling off the seat because he couldn't move!

Another Summer Day

at the pool. Lane REALLY likes the Splash Pad now. We head over there after spending some time wading in the pool. He crawls all over the place. This is a time where I wish he could walk. His swim trunks cover his knees good enough, but ouch on the toes. He got smart and started crawling with his toes in the air. Ha! Maybe a pair of water shoes will do the trick!


This is what it looked like outside literally less than a minute after we got home. NO idea where it came from! Only lasted an hour or so.
This is what Lane looked like less than a minute (okay, maybe 5) after we got home.

This is what we did while Lane slept. ;-)

And now I am off to finish getting ready...I have a date with 2 handsome boys!

More hair, less teeth

Sorry about that last post...if you know our relationship, you know it was done with utmost respect and really just to make each other laugh.....because who can't laugh at someone signing their name b-o-x?

So anyway...

We've been a poolin' the past few days. It has been super nice out. Really hot, but not too humid which is sooo awesome! Just Lane and I have been going and today we invited Heather and Beckett, who I mentioned earlier this week. Remember....he was the one with LESS hair than Lane.
PROOF:
"Dude I really do have more hair than you!"


"Dude you really do have more hair than me"

We had a blast. The 2 boys splashing and playing back and forth in the pool. We'll be sure to get together again.

A Brighter Day

So the sun came out just in time for my Mom, Dad and Luke to leave. Oh well! Maybe next time. I guess they were paying for the 70* weather we had when they visited in February! Even though they didn't enjoy any sunshine.....we did take the lil' fish swimming and here are some pictures.....
