Griff's swimming classes are totally paying off. He absolutely loves the water, and he is starting to recognize parts of songs/rhymes we sing in class. It's amazing! Last week we were at the indoor pool at the Y practicing "Humpty Dumpty", a swim class classic. I hold Griffin sitting on the edge of the pool and recite, "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great Faaaaallllllllll..." and at the word "fall", Griffin started leaning forward on his own and gently pushing his feet off the wall to get in the water. I thought it was just a coincidence that he did this, so I tried it over and over (like 20 times), and he consistently did it. So cool!
