Swim Lessons & 3 Months

Clara started swim lessons at the pool near our house. It is a parent/tot class, and it's really fun and I think she will learn some important things. We are doing a lot of water related activities this summer, so it's good for her to know about safety and begin to learn how to swim. They practice climbing out of the pool, waiting for an adult to be ready to catch before jumping in, paddling, kicking, holding their breath, and some fun singing and playing time. My sister and Ella are doing the class with us, and that makes it even more fun! She has had a couple lessons so far, and Uncle Jesse and Aunt Holly came up to Ramona to hang out and have a BBQ so they watched her first lesson and played in the pool with her while we were waiting to start.

Coleton also turned 3 months old yesterday!
He is getting very strong, and if you are holding him reclined he is constantly trying to sit up. He does this in his swing, bouncy seat, and his car seat. He ends up just getting frustrated sometimes because I have him strapped in, or if I have him propped up somewhere he just topples over. He is holding his head up really good, just a little bit of a bobble so I think he'll be ready for the bumbo soon, and I know he'll love it! He is just such a sweetheart, he smiles all the time and giggles. So much fun!
