It's a good day! Today Drew-Drew is 7 months old (and it's Aunt Lynda's birthday too - so Happy Birthday Aunt Lynda!). Drew is sitting on his own better and better and grabbing for EVERYTHING! He is really starting to love seeing Steve too. He often just squeals whenever he gets sight of his doggy - and whenever we are outside he keeps a close eye on Steve as he roams the yard and rolls around. Drew also loves to make NOISE - he loves to bang on everything (we'll try to get some drumming video up soon - we see a rock star in the making).
A new big thing this week was the start of swimming class! He's the youngest in his class but seems to enjoy it. The teacher said that she would like him to learn how to float by the end of the month - isn't that amazing?!? As you can imagine, we have *lots* of swimming pictures (but unfortunately a lot of them turned out a bit blurry), so bear with us...

Getting ready to hit the pool
Drew patiently waits on the side of the pool until the teacher says that it is time to get in the water.

Splish-splash with the teacher!
Weeeeeeeeeeeee!
Drew is getting the hang of this floating thing. The teacher wants him to learn how to flip from his stomach to his back in the water. 
"Look at me, Mommy!!!"
Another goal is for Drew to be able to find and reach for the edge of the pool. He's catching on fast, huh?
"I love swimming... when is my next class?! "
After class, Drew decided to show off his "plumber" look. 
dang, your arms have gotten buff from carrying drew around!! i'll bet he LOVES swimming! (who doesn't?) it's such a great thing to have him doing it so early on, too. he'll have a lifetime of water enjoyment ahead of him now, and he'll always know how to enjoy the water safely (and of course your peace of mind knowing he'll be able to swim will be priceless). what a sweet and lucky baby boy, and a lucky couple you guys are as well. love from auntie sara and brad! we love you!
