We survived!!

So we survived our week!!! Are you amazed? Well almost, it's technically not over yet. Brooks and I got home from our Pool Dives last night and were excited about knowing we had today (Friday) off, except they moved our Sunday Diving Class to today, since Sunday is Father's Day. We're very exicted about that so we can spend Father's Day together as a family, yet... this means we don't have a day of rest at all until Sunday.

This week has been very long, yet short, very busy, yet calm. That's odd, I know. We're enjoying out scuba diving lessons-- last night we had to practice all the skills we learned in class i a pool, so that if you got in a bind you could quickly get out of the water.

I learned two things at class last night... Brooks is AMAZING and TALENTED at EVERYTHING he does. He successfully completed every single skill without any issue or problem.. I felt like I was married to SuperMan. I made sure to watch him do every skill so I could learn from him. The other thing I learned last night was that I am book smart, but have difficulty taking the knowledge I have in my head and applying it to real situations.. In the end, the Dive Master, with the help of Brooks, I was able to complete the skills without strugglng. Today and tomorrow's dives our going to be in a lake and this time there are no demonstrations first. We are told what skills to do and have to complete them on our own-- it should be interesting.

Gavin is doing great!! He decided he was tired of army crawling and has moved to crawling completly and totally on all 4. He completed his first week of swim lessons and really enjoys being in the water. He has been able to do each skill, but does NOT like floating on his back. We do this skill where he sits on the edge of a pool and we sing Humpty Dumpty. When it gets to the part that says HD had a big fall-- Gavin jumps in the water towards me. He loves jumping in so much he doesn't wait for the end of the song... It's really cute. Yesterday, we practiced "launching" where the swim instructor counts to three while he's on his stomach and puts him under but pushes him towards me and I catch him.. I think he likes that more than just being put under water. I can't wait to see what he learns next week.
