1st day of Swim lessons and other unrelated stuff...

Swim lessons have begun! Two weeks, for four days each week for 30 minute sessions, we'll see what becomes of it.

Meeting his instructor and getting used to the water.

Practicing their kicks.

Lots of playing with the hoop, they are playing "London Bridges" right now. At one point it was on the water and they made a pizza by scooping the water on it. Then blew bubbles on their pizza. Fun.

Later he sang the song about five monkeys teasing the alligator.

Back floating, he did put his head back in the water for a nano-second.

More kicking and waiting for his turn.

Then they practiced jumping into the water, hopefully building trust at the same time.

The lesson went well, it looked like they were having a good time.
Cody was not impressed. He was disappointed to not be in the deeper end swimming after today. So we talked about it and hopefully he understood that it wouldn't happen over night.
"Your instructor seemed fun." I said to him.
"Yeah, not really." he told me.
Hmmm, okay. We'll see how the rest of the week goes.


Last week we went to what was advertised as an art program, but it's more of a random-play-for-an-hour program. Boys had fun, Ty played on this bouncer ball about 75% of the time. Too funny! Nope, not cutting that hair anytime soon.

Random sleeping position of the week.
