Uncle Jason

I love my uncle Jason. No one else plays with me as long as he does. He will chase me around the house for as long as I want. We also played baseball together on his recent trip to Longview. At night I would ask for Jason and Jill to come see me because I missed them. Aunt Jill was a sweetheart. She chased me too and would hide like Jason, but wouldn't scare me like he does. Although I prefer to be scared by uncle Jason because it makes me scream really loud and well that is always fun.Here I am at more of my swim classes. I really enjoyed it.

Being silly with my new friend.
Kick, kick, kick
With these floaters I get to kick around on my own.
Cookie time with nan! Yum, yum.

Swim class for the Big Kids!

I am in the "pike" swim class now, which means I sit on the edge of the pool and wait for my teacher's instructions. Mom and dad were quite nervous because I am one energetic boy. But, I surprised them a little and wouldn't get in at first. My teacher said I could blow bubbles so then I hopped in and from then on it was splashing and bubbles. I had a lot of fun. I jumped in the pool, climbed out, kicked my feet, swam with my teacher, climbed out, splashed more water, ran over and told dad, "look at me" and then ran back to splash more water. It was so much fun. And there was free time where I got to wear these floaters and hold another flotation device while swimming around the pool. I proffered an adult to hold onto so my old teacher Valerie got in and swam with me. It was very kind of her.

Splashing with my feet. I got others to join in shortly after. And mom always thought I was a follower.
My turn in "Butter, butter, pop!" or JUMP!
Swimming on my back. I was a little stiff. The next go around I completely relaxed and shut my eyes. I am so silly.
Holding on to the side of the pool. Mom looked a little green at this point. She thought I was going to let go.
Getting out on my own!

"Won't my mama be so proud of me?"

I learned a knew song at school, one of many, and one night mom was sitting with me watching my dinosaur movie and I started singing her the song. When I got to the verse "Won't my mama be so proud of me?" She gave me a big hug and kiss and told me she was very proud of me. Now she makes me sing the song daily.
She is also proud of me because I can climb up the ladders at the playground. When I get to the top I say, "I did it!" And mom gives me a high five. Then, I go down the slide.

Today I went to the dentist. This was my 3rd visit and normally I do quite well. But, mom wasn't so sure this time because I had just been to the doctor previously (they had to take wax out of ear and I made sure everyone 4 blocks down heard my protest) and the fact that other people were in there getting worked on and I couldn't stop staring at them was another sign. Mom noticed I kept getting redder and then said, "I want to go home." I then broke into a sweat and started climbing out of the seat. Know one had even touched me yet. My dentist is super nice though. He didn't do anything but put a mirror in my mouth and he told mom I will most likely not get cavities because I produce so much saliva. So all those years (2) of wearing bibs was worth it for no cavities.
