Swim Lessons!

About a month ago I signed John up for swim lessons. This morning was our first day. We are taking our class through a private instructor at her home close by. John's class is small which I love and her pool is heated which is nice and relaxing. John did really well and had a great time. He is getting better each day with swimming and being in the water. We try to go to the pool at least once a day.

In class today he learned how to kick his feet, blow bubbles in the water, hold on to the wall, float on his back and tummy, kick to swim to the wall, and other things. The first day was really to get him use to being in the water and moving around. We sang songs and made the actions of the songs in the pool.

I do not have any photos of us at the swim lesson today, but here is a photo of us at a beach pool yesterday. There is a really neat private pool that some of my friends are members of close to us. The area around the pool is sand so it is like being at a beach. They also had a small splash pad area for the kids. John had a great time, but was not to sure about the sand.

Taking a break for strawberries and blueberries! Yummy!
