Monkey See, Monkey Do

Today we headed over to the Southland Leisure Centre and went swimming in the pool. It's great because they have a big "fun" pool. It makes waves, you can jump in from the sides, basketball hoop and waterslides. Then they also have a shallow baby pool that is as warm as bath water. Lucas and I had lots of fun in both of them. We åre fortunate that he hasn't gone through a "don't like the water" stage. Even today when a wave hit him in the face he gasped and was ready for more.


This picture is our backyard, not the Southland Leisure Center =)

It was really funny to see him copy other little kids today. One kid would splash so would Lucas, another kid would stick his tongue out to catch the water fall, so would Lucas. One kid was playing with a boat, next thing Lucas wanted to play with it as well. Monkey See, Monkey Do.

So I am at a bit of a dilemma on what to do with Lucas's naps. I feel that he still needs his morning nap as I can barely keep him up for 2 hours, once he wakes up. But then once he wakes from his morning nap he's ready to go for atleast 4 hours. Which ends up making his afternoon nap really late. Do I try skipping the morning nap? Shortening it? Maybe I'll do some research to see.

Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend.

Till Tuesday!
