New and old

Something new...We have discovered that Blake really loves to play golf. He wants to go all the time. Scott took him to the driving range and they took Blake's play golf clubs. He wanted to do it so badly that Scott let him hit a real ball with his play set. Let's just say the ball won! LOL One swing and it broke the club. Blake was so sad that he didn't have clubs. Scott took him a couple more times and they used Daddy's clubs. Scott got an idea to encourage this since its something Blake is showing an interest in so we got him a set of golf clubs for his birthday. Scott reminded me when we were buying them that Tiger Woods started at 3. LOL He said Blake can be his golfing buddy. That is so sweet. Scott is such a great Dad. It doesn't matter to him if he spends more time helping Blake than on his own golf game. He has taken him five times in the last week alone! They plan on breaking those out as early as possible. Even as I type, Blake has a golf club in his hand trying to hit a ball. Maybe we have a little Tiger on our hands. LOL Scott said he wants Blake to beat him by the time he is 8. I couldn't resist the easy dig so I said that wouldn't be that hard. LOL As long as Blake still likes it, we will do it. This is a picture of Blake and Scott at the driving range and a picture of the golf club they used which is now in pieces.

Something old... After last summers near drowning in swim lessons I was a little leery of going back and doing that again, but better sense won and I signed him up at a different place of course. We are taking it again with my friend and Blake's girlfriend like we did last year so I have support in case of heart failure. She was with me through the whole ordeal last year so she knows why I am kind of a freak. So far I am very surprised at how well he is doing. Mommy still can't breathe when he goes under water but at least he doesn't know any different. What is funny is that he doesn't remember it at all but his girlfriend that was in the class remembers everything. She remembers what he looked like and me jumping in after him when the swim instructor didn't notice and was too far away to get to him. She was telling him not to "bob up and down in the water" again. I am glad Blake doesn't remember though. Now if only Mommy could forget....


His smile shows that he loves it! His teacher is great. Aquakids is where we are going and Mr. Matt is awesome!
