Weston's First Swim

We took Weston for his first swim the other day. I have been wanting to take him for a while but just have never gotten around to it. He didn't really cry but wasn't super excited about it. Just kind-of was there. He hated it when we got his whole head wet or slightly dunked him. We didn't have a life jacket on the whole time. Joe wanted him to have one on so it would be easier for us. We went to the Dimble Dell pool and they have like slides and toys in the water. It was really fun.

On his back, learning how to float.

Hanging out with daddy.

Part I Paris

So we decided to spend some of our hard earned money and go to England to see my parents. Well since we were going so far, we stopped in Paris first. We left Weston with Joe's family and were gone for 8 days (two of those days were just travel). I have learned several things from this trip: I hate long flights (in a 24 hr period - I slept 2 hours); try not to eat anything off the street (they dont cook their food and it is left on the counter all day long); and ask before buying something we ended up spending 20 euros on 3 pastries! But in all we had a lot of fun. Here is some pictures from Paris.

Us in front of the Eifel Tower. It was cool to actually be there.

We went to the Louvre and saw some cool stuff. Joe trying to do the Egyptian walk.

We took a river cruise done the Siene which was awesome but I was freezing!!

Us eating French food on the street. The restaurants were so fun because they are right on the street.

The Arch de Triumph. Pretty cool.
