Our Little Fish!

Marc has always loved "swimming" with Daddy. Whenever we stayed in a hotel, we had to go swimming in their pool since both Marc and little Marc love swimming. We joined the YMCA a couple of weeks ago so we have gone swimming A LOT since we joined. We decided it was a good time for Marc to start official swimming lessons. He had his first lesson today. He had a great time! He has 5 kids between the ages of 3-5 in his class. They started the class out by having the kids hold onto the edge of the pool and kick their feet behind them. I think Marc was having a good time.
And then the kids sit on the wall until the teacher brings them out to do some basic swimming moves one at a time.

She took the kids out to float on their backs.She asked the kids to blow bubbles in the water.At the end of class she had the kids jump off the wall and into the water next to her and then she helped them swim back to the side of the pool.
I had a lot of fun watching him during his swim lesson. I look forward to lots more of them to watch.

First Tooth!

Yeah!! Samantha officially got her first tooth on her 9 month birthday! We have been very blessed, she was not fussy at all while she was cutting her tooth. The only thing she did was chew on everything she got her hands on. We think she is working on cutting another one, she is still chewing on lots of her "hard" toys. She will not let us get a picture out it yet, so as soon as she lets us, we will post a picture.
