Jake's First Swim Lessons.....

We signed both of the boys up for swim lessons this past summer at our local high school. These are pics of Jake's first lesson. He wasn't really afraid of the water but he didn't like the conformity of the swim session.

It was a Mommy & Me class and we sang songs and practiced floating, dunking, blowing bubbles, jumping in, etc. He did a lot of screaming because he would have much rather been doing his own thing.

I was crazy to think that I would keep my hair dry by putting it up in a hairclip. He was splashing a million splashes per minute. All in all we enjoyed the sessions and they really helped him to get familiar with the basics of pool time. By the end of the summer he was pretty much wiggling around in the water by himself (under the close supervision of mommy & daddy).
