First time flying

Jaxon took his first airplane ride on September 2nd.  We took a family trip to San Diego for 5 days.  We left on the 2nd, which also was our 11th Wedding Anniversary.  Jaxon did fabulous on the plane, nothing really phased him, he thought it was cool, but he wasn't too overly impressed.  Just relaxed, colored, enjoyed the snacks and watched a few movies on his dvd player.  He was great!

These two are the best of friends these days  :-)

 

Swim Lessons

Jaxon took swimming lessons this year in August for the 1st time.  His took lessons at the Spokane County Pool near Hatch Road and 395.  His teacher's name was Iris and he was in the preschool class, the first one after parent tot (although we never took parent tot)  He was a little hesitant at first.  I got in with him for the first two days, but after that he loved it.  On the last day he even volunteered to be the first preschooler to jump off the diving board --mommy and aunt heidi were a little nervous, but his teacher reassured us he would be fine.  He marched right up, walked to the end and jumped into her (no life jacket, no water wings)  What a brave little guy.  It was a fun two weeks!

 Making a face for daddy, since daddy was in California for work during this day of lessons.
