Ethan - Shy?
Olivia's having a little sleep in her chair!
Here's Ethan with his hockey/soccer game!
Ethan loves opening presents!
On Friday, I signed Ethan up for swimming lessons at the Oakville Swim Academy. They have small classes with only four kids per teacher and parents don't participate. Unfortunately, when we got there and Ethan realized that I was not coming with him, he did not want to go. So I sat by the pool while he played around on the steps, but he had not desire to participate. It may just be because he is not that comfortable in the water yet. I am going to try to find lessons that parents can attend instead because I really want him to learn how to swim.
On Saturday, Ethan started a new Sportball class. This was another class in which he now gets dropped off. Three seems to be the magic age after which parents don't always have to participate. He was a little bit shy at first but after a couple of minutes he started participating and he had a lot of fun. Another mother and I stayed in the gym just to watch. Next week I will let him stay by himself. He seems to be developing a bit of shyness or self-consciousness when he is in new environments, I wonder why?
Later on Saturday, I went to my friend Nicola's wedding shower. It was a lot of fun catching up with Nicola, Wendi, Rebecca and Michele. There was even a belly dancer! After the shower, Michele and I came back to our house to join Jerry, Scott and the kids for Thai food.
On Sunday, we went to Sear's to get some pictures taken. Olivia woke up in a cranky mood and was not interested in getting her picture taken and Ethan wasn't too into it either. We tried to get a family picture, but no such luck! However, we did manage to get one nice shot of each of them separately.
Olivia went to the ear specialist last week and she is scheduled to get tubes put into her ears on April 23rd. Although I am nervous about her having to go through the surgery, I think it will be much better than having her on antibiotics all the time.
Here are some more pictures from Ethan's birthday weekend...
