Swimming Lessons

Cash began swimming lessons Sat. March 6 and they go until May 1. All three of us are having such a wonderful time! So far, Cash has been for 3 weeks. The first week, he did really good, but by the end of 45 minutes, he was cold and was done. They taught us how to old Cash in the water and just getting him use to the water and kicking. He has always been a kicker. We lay him on the floor on his belly and he just kicks away, so we knew swimmng would be easy for him. In the last two weeks, we have been working on the back float and blowing bubbles. The first time we did the backfloat with Cash, he wasn't too sure about it, but by this week, he was doing it with no problem. He really is not scared of the water at all. The ages for this group are from 6 months to 3 years. There are a couple other little ones about Cash's age and they aren't yet able to put the back of their heads in the water yet. They still lean their heads against their parent's shoulders. Now blowing bubbles is another story. Cash loves to watch us blow bubbles, but he would rather eat the water instead of blow. We are working with him at home on how to put your lips together and blow to make noise, so he doesn't continue eating water. This week, Cash started slapping the water, like dad. He splashes in his face, stops, then does it all over again. I really think we are going to have a fish on our hands! Here are pics from the first week!

Random Pics

Many of you may remember that for Ryan's 30th birthday, his cousin Kelly gave him a couple shirts, well for Christmas, she gave Cash one of the same shirts. What a pair! Thanks Kelly! :)



I will fall in about 2.3 seconds!



I'm Crawling!

Friday, Feb. 26th, Cash saw a piece of paper on the ground and headed straight for it! He pushes with his feet and pulls with his elbows! He looks like a little military guy crawling under barbwire. He tries to hard and you can tell he is giving it his all. It won't be long until he's on all fours moving much, much faster! As for now, even though he doesn't go too fast, he's fast enough. We can walk out of the room for just a second and come back and he's across the room getting into something he shouldn't.

6 Month Appointment

Fed. 23rd, Cash had his 6 month wellness check. He checked out just fine. Ryan and I both went because I had many questions about food and water. There was a mix up in scheduling, so he didn't see Dr. Rogers, we saw Dr. Burrell. She told us that he could start drinking about a cup of water a day straight from the tap. It is good for him to start getting fluroide. Plus it is a good way to introduce the sippy cup. At this appointment, Cash weighed 16 lbs. 13 oz. which put him in the 35th percentile. He grew an inch, so he's at 27 1/4 in. (78th percentile), and the circ. of his head increased a cm. His head's circ. is 43.8 cm. (50th percentile).

We took a few pics at the appointment. This was Cash before shots, (waiting for the dr. to come and check on us). He definately does not like those, but he is always a trooper and calms down quickly.

My First Tooth!!!

Cash cut his first tooth on Feb, 19th. I can't believe how fast he's growing! At this rate, it won't be long until he has a whole mouth full!

Here are some more pics from the week.
Don't mind the spit up! :)
