Scoop, Scoop, Kick and Kick
My new favorite words: scoop, scoop, kick and kick. Eli and Colton started swim lessons this week. At first, I'll admit, I wasn't thrilled about going every day for 2 weeks, but the 2.5 to 3 hour nap that follows every lesson is glorious!
What can you do with 3 hours in the middle of the day? Well, let me tell you!
1. Go to Costco and actually search the aisles without a foodie fanatic toddler.
2. Get ALL your laundry done.
3. Complete most of your work projects during normal business hours.
4. Take a nap -- tee-hee. That was my favorite day!
Eli is enjoying it for the most part. He is learning some swim technique, holding his breath and jumping of the edge. We have two older boys in our toddler group so maybe he will imitate them. They are fearless and it makes me fearful of Eli being two-and-a-half.
He is not keen of putting his face or ears in the water and also not a fan of the dunk. I think he might have a little crush on our instructor too! Not only is she cute, but she has some great ducky toys.
Colton and Eli ready for the first day.
Does he look excited or what?

The Next Roger Ebert
I am telling on myself since babies/toddlers are suppose to have zero screen time, but we watch movies at our house. Eli's favorite movies are Kung Fu Panda and Madagascar -- oldies but goodies.
Kung Fu Panda 2 came out Memorial Day weekend and we decided Eli needed the big screen experience. So Sunday we packed up snacks, drinks, a toy and headed to Tinseltown. It's only $4 per ticket so an investment we were willing to make in case we had to walk out.
He did AMAZING! We got there 15 minutes prior to start and he sat in his chair through all the previews up to the last 10 minutes of the movie. I would say a total of 2 hours he was engrossed in the movie. I am totally impressed.
Enjoying a snack before the movie.
Eli gives it a thumbs up.
Now, the sad thing is Brent and I have not been to a movie in probably a year. I guess the compromise will be if we see a movie, it will be a cartoon.
