Today was Leo's swim class. I'll write more about this when I am more awake but today was a pretty good day for him. Too bad he flips out if I watch poolside (he'll try to leave the water and bound into my arms). So I get to spend most of the class in the lifeguard lounge right off the pool. I watch through the window as he bobs up and down on his little noodle and foam barbell. He's also working on kicking and dunking and paddling.
After swimming I let him play at the community center playground (his big reward). We played catch with a ball and he climbed on some of the structures. It was crazy windy and quite cold. When it was time to leave, he left with no problem. For some reason I find when Leo is alone (without Ellie) he's just so much more agreeable and less stubborn. I guess it's an attention thing, I don't know.
Maybe he left so swiftly because we were off to one of his favorite places. The grocery store! While he snacked on Veggie Booty, I did some quick shopping. Then it was home for some quiet rest time (well, I made apple crisp and did laundry, so not all that restful, but certainly relaxing). Later we played outside in the backyard and I marveled at how downright cold it is now and how it seems like just weeks ago the kids were half naked in the backyard and painting. Time flies. I also decided it was just way to windy to bother raking. Right.
The kids passed out in 2.9 seconds tonight (love it). Now I'm going to watch DVRed "30 Rock" and "Parenthood." World's Most Boring Post. And a rocking Saturday night!
