So, Charlie has been a busy boy so far this summer. If fact, this is the first week we have had nothing on the schedule and I must say its been kind of nice. We've slept in (as much as possible with Gus), stayed in our pajamas until lunch time, done lots of playing, some crafts and lots of movies (its WAY to hot in the afternoons to play outside). But, for the last two weeks Charlie has been taking swimming lessons. We opted to go to the YMCA again, even though I knew it was sketchy as to who would be teaching and if he would actually learn any proper technique. But we got lucky and got in a class with only two other kids and with two teachers. Charlie's teacher was Amy Gold and I must stay she was fantastic...so fantastic, that we've decided that next year, we are just going to contact her directly for private lessons.
He's far from swimming on his own, but he did come a long way in a short two weeks. I was a proud mama!
Our other adventure for the week was a trip to the circus!! It was totally a last minute decision, but if I must say so, I good choice! It was a great circus! Clowns, tigers, elephants, tight rope walkers, motorcycle daredevils, you name it, they had it! Charlie's favorite part of the show were the motorcycles in the steel ball. There were 7 in the ball at one time!! It was quite impressive!
It was a really great show and I would highly recommend it if the circus comes to your town. Jason and I were quite surprised at how good it was. We will definitely do it again the next time they are in town...and maybe by then we will have TWO little boys that will love it!
