Vince the Fish

Vince’s last swimming class was this last night. We have been taking swimming classes for almost 5 months now… since he was a little over 6 months old. We had not been to class since before Christmas, so we were a little worried that he would forget how to hold his breath, but he surprised us and didn’t miss a beat! He had such a good time last night. He was kicking and kicking when he was in his motor boat chasing balls.




He also held his breath for 10 seconds under water! He started at one second when we first started going and have been adding seconds ever since. Yesterday was the first time he did 10!





We will probably sign him up for more classes sometime in the next couple months. We want him to be really comfortable with the water since we have a pool at home.

Changing the subject… this past week we bought this neat soccer ball field blow up thing for Vince. We say it’s for his birthday party, but I think we just wanted to buy it. It came with 25 balls, but Vince loves, loves balls, so we made a trip to Toys-r-us Sunday morning and bought him 250 more! The balls were making his hair very staticy as you can tell in the picture.

In other Vince news... he found that if he puts things in his mouth, he can crawl easier.
