Update

I can't even call this a weekly update because it's been too long! I hadn't downloaded any new pictures from my camera in a while so I didn't really have anything to post...but tonight I got all the new pictures off my camera and onto the computer, so I can finally do a long overdue update. Pretty much I should subtitle this the sports edition because our last couple weeks have been fairly sports-centered. Basketball ended and has been replaced by soccer, which is even funnier to watch than the basketball was! The video I am uploading gives you a good idea of how the class goes - trying to make a bunch of 3 to 5 year olds co-operate is one thing (as the beginning of the video shows), then add in Henry who isn't exactly task-oriented and you get the following video. I think Henry is having a bit of a difficult time transitioning from basketball (all hands) to soccer (all feet), but he's catching on. We also started swimming lessons and go twice a week for the next 5 weeks. The first week (and especially the first class) was a little rough. Henry spent the same amount of time out of the water as in it, and I spent the majority of the class crouched by the edge of the pool encouraging him to participate. But by today's class (the third) he remained in the water the entire time and participated in all the activities. It's just a class to get the kids acclimated to the water so they sing a lot of songs and play a lot of games. The second half of the video shows him in his second swimming class doing the hokey-pokey. The other two pictures are from a trip we took to the zoo - I love the one of him feeding the lorakeets. The look on his face is priceless - like "I really am not sure about this, but I'm doing it...."
