*Reading: Loves to be read to. Getting to the point where he can patiently sit through an entire Curious George book.
*Swim Lessons: Nick has been taking Parent and Me swim lessons at the Greenville Aquatics Center with his friend Jonah Bulluck every Tuesday and Thursday night in March. He is doing great with it and loves the water. So far he has learned to kick on his tummy, kick on his back, slide in from the side and reach for a ball/toy. He is definitely a work in progress but I think it is good for him to be exposed to the water.
