i seriously need

to head out and go bathing suit shopping soon. although i do dread it, its a needed wardrobe piece for my summer days ~
Rons working tonight, he took the last two days off which was nice, we were really starting to miss him bunches. although im semi used to the long hours, i still dont have to like them do i?
the last few days (well yesterday and today) found me and the boys down at the water. little ron text'd me asking if we could go swimming.. i told him to let me ask wyatt and well it wasnt long and wyatt was jumping around saying *yes yes yes* so off we went. got a little more time today as we left just as soon as they both were home from school.
im very proud of wyatts swimming.. for a child who has yet to have lessons, he is doing great. i still make him stay where he can easily put his feet down.. but he does good for someone who was self taught. freaked me out last year when he surprised me with *look what i can do* we had gone to swim with my *sister* sue who was down visiting with her parents and son.. the condo they were staying in had an indoor pool .. something needed during spring break as the days are beautiful and warm but the water isnt quite there yet and feels more like swimming in ice.
wyatt had convinced me to let him play in the pool without his floaties on.. and i agreed under the understanding that he would stay where he could touch and not go past that rope!
yeah that didnt work.. i was talking with sue i believe and i heard.. hey mommy look at this.. and off he went *argh* talk about a heart attack on the inside.. but i kept my calm and he did great. our new rule became he could do it but only if lil ron or i was next to him incase he got tired so we could push him to the side.. hes been swimming ever since.
although i do still think he needs lessons.
lil ron is a great swimmer, he had taken lessons when he was younger. i think we started when he was in kindergarten if not smaller than that. at the time they only offered up to lesson 5 and he went threw all of them.. took lesson 5 twice as a matter of fact.
owen seems to be enjoying the water. he will start out in his floatie thing and last for maybe 5-10 minutes in that.. after which he just wants you to hold him and play with him.. which for me is something i have to get used to.. i cant hold him and not touch bottom at the same time and i soo hate touching the bottom of the sound *rofl*
so that has been our last 2 days.. swimming for a few hours every night after school. tomorrow we will take a break as the end of the road will be over crowded with people and that makes it not so much fun..
if the little'r guys head to moms house tomorrow evening, than i told lil ron we would take clyde down for a bit on sunday.. probably after everyone else is gone from the water. the thing with clyde and owen at the same time is they both want to be held and until clyde gets used to just swimming on his own without making me hold him, its a bit harder to deal with both at once.. so i need to keep working on clyde when it comes to the swim thing.
