don't be jealous of jude's mad swimming skills......or the lack there of. sometimes i wonder if he really is my son. i was born to swim and i don't think i was ever afraid of anything except the dark (still am). jude is a bit of a chicken when it comes to the dare devil department. however, i deem swimming a very necessary skill. last years "mom & tot" swim lessons were a bust so this year i decided i would go the private route. the jury is still out on whether it was worth the $60 for 4 lessons, seeing as jude would not get in the water the 1st one.
i have to give him props though because by the end of his lessons he loved his teacher erika and he would get in the water. he can now put his head in to his ears, blow mad bubbles, use his monster arms, kick and swim holding onto someones arm, and last but not least jump in the water without being caught. we will continue to swim AT LEAST 3 times a week until the summer has left us so hopefully he will learn to love the water so i can claim his as my own.

Go Judakins. I still won't jump in the water for fear of death
Go Jude! He'll be swimming in no time. I think he's very brave for a two year old.
About time you update!! Go Jude...he is doing awesome despite his mother's unrealistic expectations. Major strides from start to finish and I love him! XOXOX
