Swim Lessons

Eric and I decided that since we are around water so often we definitely don't want Noah to be afraid of the water so we signed him up for water baby swim lessons. It swimming lessons for both him and I together. He is a little young for some of the activities of the class but he loves being in the water. His teacher, Ms. Bridget, is a young college student and she is real sweet and Noah seems to like her. Today I was talking to her in the pool and he leaned over and reached for her.

We are going to class all this week and next week. Each class we do some basic activities like sitting them on the wall and telling them to wait, or carrying them under our arms so the babies can learn to kick. These are the things that he is a little young for, but he does them all well anyway. Yesterday we started blowing in the babies faces, which forces them to hold their breath and then we dunk them. I thought he would come up screaming, but he didn't. He just comes up with wide eyes and catches his breath. He even laughed a couple of times. He is doing very well and we are both having alot of fun.


Here we are front towing, which is supposed to teach him to kick his legs.


Molly Kate and Ms. Katie are taking the class with us. It is fun to watch both kids in the pool.


Holding him on his back so he will kick.

Passing Noah to Ms. Bridget. He is cute when he does this and paddles his arms.

Happy in the Pool
