Normally I take Simon to his lesson but this week do to an injury (I
burned my arm making a smoothie) Myles got the honor. Myles had to take off work early to do this but it left me free to be able to video the event. Normally
there are 2 other kids in his lessons but we really lucked out that
both were not in attendance and Simon got a private lesson. Prefect day
to show up with a video camera : )
This is the first video that I have completely shot, edited and added music to all by myself. I think I am starting to get the knack of imovie.

Simon is not used to
swimming with his daddy and I think it’s funny how he doesn’t really
trust him with the back float. Notice how Simon holds on tight to
Myles’ fingers.

He really does love swimming and doesn’t mind
going under water at all. He is becoming quite the little fish. I am
really hung up on the idea of getting some underwater video of him but
I need to either borrow or rent an under water camera. Anyone have one
they want to loan me?

He has actually been saying a few words for awhile now unfortunately I am about the only person who can understand them. I have been trying very hard to get some of his words on video but any time I pull out the camera he becomes a lot more interested in it then talking. He started saying “bye” at 8 and 1/2 months but only when he felt like it. Now he says Hi, Bye, Dog, Duck, Quack, Ball, uh-oh, NO, BOP (which is Simon-ese for STOP!). He also sings “e-i-e-i” as in “Old McDonald”. I have been trying to teach him sign language but he is not very interested. Pretty much he only signs the word “Dog” and he waves “bye” but that’s it and we have been working very hard on “More”, “Please”, “all done” and various other signs. The interesting development is that I realized he thinks all 4-legged animals are dogs. He has a toy bear which he started calling a dog. he holds it up and says dog and signs it (patting his leg as if calling a dog). I say no bear and sign bear – we go back and forth like that – he insists that the bear is a dog. Today I showed him a you-tube video of some cows and showed him the sign for cow. He was mesmerized by the video clip and  signed and said “Dog” – I said “no Simon tha’s not a Dog it’s a Cow! but he insits. So here is a video of him insisting that the cows are dogs. Our neighbor actually has cows and horses but I deemed it too cold to take him out there to show him a proper cow. So here he is – if you listen closely you can here him say “Dog” several times.
