The park and swim class.

This has been a great week. We went to the park and Simon is swimming like a fish, maybe a tadpole. Short posting with a bunch of great photos.

Summer with Simon.

Simon is doing well and I am adjusting to home life. When you have a 6 month old baby times can be fun with some minor effort. Simon loves to watch Curious George, Sid the Science Kid, and Sesame Street on PBS. I use the time to run (see pic bellow) and get work done around the house. We also get out to either meet MOM (Amber) for lunch or walk the mall if it is too hot outside (85+). The adjustment has been a little hard. I use to go on 5 hour cycling rides, go to the coffee shop to hangout, or go to Cycles Unlimited (the only LEED "green" cycling shop in SPFLD) for some bike talk. The video shows why it is all worth the adjustment.

The workout room.

Simon's first swim.

Simon's first swim class went well. He went under the water five or six times. Simon did well except for the cold water. He shivered a lot but never full on cried. We sang afew songs and moved in the pool to get use to the water. Amber joined us in the pool so we only have a few photos, but with eight classes we should have a few more to post later. Check out Simon's cool turtle swimming trunks.
