Swimming Lessons

Fresh out of the pool. First day!
He LOVES the ping-pong balls! The only way to get him to kick is to put one in the water, and he'll try to go after it!
My stud muffins


Back to the pool... Yes, I signed up my 10-month-old for swimming lessons. He really likes the water (as we already knew), but he really DOESN'T like being told what to DO in the water! Back floating is not his favorite-- unless he gets to chew on the big water noodle the teacher gives him. When we try the monkey walk on the wall, he tries to climb out, instead (little turkey). He does love the silly songs we sing, while bobbing around in a circle. I think he probably just likes to watch us all make fools of ourselves...

He's such a doll! Cooper is the same way - he digs the water, but he doesn't like to get his face in it.
