James started swim lessons last week and he is absolutely in love with the water! We realized that we needed to get him started because last time we tried to take him swimming, he kept trying to get out of our grasp and do it himself. Of course, that only works for so long when you don't have any swimming skills. We found cheap lessons at our rec center and signed him up. On our first day, it was one instructor per 2-3 toddlers. James kept escaping the poor teacher and she ended up calling in a separate teacher to just be in charge of James. He has no fear of the water and has already learned how to float, kick, and blow bubbles! Lily and I just relax in the shade and watch James have a blast. I especially love how these lessons wear him out. :)
Ready for his first day!
