Due to some technical difficulties with our computer I haven't been able to download the pictures from our camera. Keith came to the rescue last night and now I have my pictures from July!
Here's Grant at his swimming lessons at our local pool. I started teaching him earlier in the summer, but it was too hard to get to the pool without Brett in tow so that we could have one on one time. Plus, Grant got to the point where he needed a teacher that wasn't Mom, so that maybe he would be braver and listen better. I will say that his kicking skills are much better now and he's starting to try to use his arms. He loves to swim around under water and I'm hoping that with more practice he'll learn to come up for a breath now and then while he's swimming.
He loved his teacher from his first session of lessons. The kids called her Ms. Mickey.
While Grant was waiting for his turn, he'd often be watching the water in the drain around the pool.
One day Grandma Jackson came to watch a lesson and we got to go swimming at her house afterwards.
Grant and Brett's hair got sooooo blonde this summer. A couple weeks ago we buzzed their hair and I seriously had to hold back tears. Hopefully it'll grow back fast so it can go blonde in the sun again before summer's over.

Great pictures, we will be so happy when all the grandkids can be super swimmers, but we know it will be a while, but Grant is doing great! Gr and Gr Jackson
