Swim Lessons

We started swim lessons today and both kids loved it! It made for a very busy morning: up at 6:30, out of the house by 8, run a couple errands, to gymnastics by 9, then straight to swim lessons for 10:55 class. B and C were very happy to take their naps as soon as we got home!

The class is pretty simple, with an instructor leading a few games and then giving advice and help while the parents play with their tots. C was happy to splash the entire time and B loved the pool toys (lots of rubber duckies, noodles and kick boards). We worked on a bit of dunking, and C was completely fine with it while B was a bit apprehensive. But the instructor helped T learn how to ease B into it and taught them a few games, and by the end of class B was already feeling more comfortable with it. And as for C, he is not nervous in the water at all! He wanted to be faced away from Mama and Dada the whole time and practiced his kicks and floating about on his belly. We may have quite the little swimmer in our midst!
