a lot of you have asked me how quade has done with the survival swimming lessons...he didn't like it as much as price. he screamed every lesson for 4 weeks! his teacher thought that he would reach a turning point and stop crying. she obviously doesn't know the passion and persistence of my little boy. =)
Here are a couple of clips from his clothes check-out on Monday.
(i apologize for the wild videography. i was videotaping with our video camera and our digital camera at the same time and had price on my hip...so you also hear price complaining in the background.)
This was the beginning of the "check-out"...i'm putting it on here to show you that it's not an easy thing for these guys to float on their backs fully clothed (note the green crocs from last summer...)
In this clip Gayle (an instructor in training) flips quade over to see if he can correct himself and get into a floating position...
This clip is where she pretends he falls in from the side and flips over. he swims the whole way to the side...once he has a goal in mind he won't stop to take a breath.

he did a great job even though he cried! very impressive!
isn't that funny that we posted about the boys swimming on the same day - I didn't even know you had done this post until tonight b/c it didn't come up on google reader until now. weird!
Way to go Quade!! Nana is so proud of you. Way to go Heather!! Mom is so proud of you hanging in there to get the job done. I don't have sound right now on my computer, so it was much easier to watch.
wow, what invaluable lessons for him and price to learn in the safety of an instructor. you're a great mom, heater. :)
that is awesome! go quade!
