Seth started swim lessons this week at the Y. His preschool buses the kids over to the Y for the lesson. So now I don't have to drag Seth up in the morning because he knows he gets to go swim. He LOVES to swim, but is not quite ready to let go of his floaty. This past Sunday we were invited to a birthday party at the outdoor water park at the Y and spent the mid-afternoon (in 100 degree heat) there having fun. Last year we had a membership and went swimming all the time. This year I sure do miss it! (But who can afford it with gas prices?!?) After the party Dave took Seth to see Kung Foo Panda (eh, just ok).

Seth is starting to say more grown-up things like....I like your shirt Mom, is it new? Where did you get it?. Which to me is grown up for him because he doesn't usually pay attention to anything outside of Seth, much less know about department stores. He is also learning more etiquite like... how you have to be invited to someone's house before you can go in it. And he is very thoughtful. Every morning when we leave the house for school Seth runs across the street and picks out a pretty leaf or flower for me, because "Girls get pretty things."
