Welcome

This blog was created in order for me to brag about my perfect son. :) A lot of friends and family members are not close enough to see Tyson everyday so I update this blog every few days [if not more] in order for all of you to "watch" him grow and keep up with his learning and accomplishments. Hope you enjoy!!

Your 2 Year Old

Two-year-olds give the biggest hugs, flash the biggest smiles, and yes, throw the loudest, most spectacular tantrums. Because they live in the moment, their feelings are especially transparent. It's tempting to want to keep things happy for your child at all times. But it's also important for her to experience emotions like sadness, frustration, and anger without always being "rescued" by Mom or Dad, so she can learn to cope better with small setbacks.

My Little Fishy

So my friend Katie works at the Swim Acedemy in Dublin and she's been begging me to bring Tyson there since he turned 6 months to a tiny tots class. I've been interested the entire time but never got a chance to bring him until today. Lately he has been really scared of taking a bath so I was curious to see how he would do in the pool. We arrived and when we first got in he was really scared. Wouldnt let go of me. Then as we continued to do the activities he got more and more comfotable. I think watching the other babies helped as well.

Normally they put the babies under water but since it was his first time they took it slow with him. We got him to go down to his chin. Then we practiced grabbing on to the side of the pool. The instructor said that we want the babies to learn how to grab on the side of the pool so if they ever fall in the pool they know to swim right to the edge. We always practices float on the back and going to the stairs and coming to mommy. The other babies were going under water and swimming to the instructor and kicking and splashing and some were younger then Tyson. Next time, he'll probably be ready to go under water. By the time the class was over Tyson was splashing and playing and didnt want to get out. Now we gotta try the bathtub and see if he'll enjoy it again.
