Willem Swims Like a Fish





































This week Willem started swim lessons. He enjoys watching the other kids and hasn't fussed at all about being in the water. He's the second youngest in the class but has taken to swimming like a natural. He especially liked Thursday's class when Mr. Ducky made an appearance. After his lesson he was famished, so we went out to a local Mexican food restaurant. Willem loves beans and enjoyed the tortillas as well. Also this week Willem has started holding his own cup. Getting it to his mouth and then getting water out of it is still a challenge but he's gaining ground each day. He's also very into toppling over blocks that Jason stacks up. He's a pro at knocking them down! He's showing more and more of his likes and dislikes. He likes everything so far but at times is craving one thing or another. At lunch today we gave him fruit and carrots on his tray and he ate all the fruite bites. After they were gone he kept pointing at the pantry where we keep them and making noises until we gave him more.
