About this blog: It will mainly be about my two sons, Tater (the elder) and Tot (the younger), along with other miscellaneous items as I see fit. Come along and enjoy the insane yet fun trip of watching two young boys slowly drive their mother over the edge.

Reach and Pull
Tot is finally getting the right idea...
He is even getting decent at 'floating like a boat'...
Thanks everyone... and LemonStand... this is his 2nd summer of lessons. Last year he cried every time he was put in the pool. No joke. Only this year have we made progress. Thank goodness. We live near a very deep canal. I was having nightmares about my kids falling in it. Not so much anymore.
I have to admit that I was worried about the younger two getting swim lessons like their older siblings did. It went so poorly for the youngest that I ended up putting both of them in private lessons for over a year. TWICE a week! The younger one does wonderfully now. And the older one stuck with it almost another additional year after the youngest dropped out. DD#3 will be joining the middle school swim team next week because she is SMOKIN up them lanes! She is so excited and we are so proud!
So keep it up, you may have a budding Mark Spitz! :o)

Good Job!
Oh, how cool! He looks great! :)
Ya know, I check in often but fail to leave comments. I haven't forgotten you and love seeing photos of the boys. Someday we'll be in-laws! :)
He is doing SOOOOO much better than my youngest. It took her 6 months of swim lessons before she could float. Great pictures as always!
