{Swimming Lessons}

The kids had their swimming lessons last Monday. This is Samantha's first. She's signed up for the dynababies class. Ed gets to swim with her throughout class. They are primarily focus on teaching water safety and being comfortable around the pool.

William's been two years ago, but this is his first year in a class with no parent's assistance. He's with pre-schoolers and they have one instructor with them.

A quick family picture before their classes start.

William had a wonderful time and enjoyed every second of the lesson. He listened intently to the teachers instructions and go for it. The swimming goggles was a big deal. He borrowed one for his lessons and we pick up his own at the swim school's store after class.

Samantha's reaction was more complicated. She really wasn't too fond of the "creepy" bear mascot that they used to demo in class. 

She warmed up to class during the bubble and ball play. The lil ones were persuaded to kick their fit and "catch" the ball. That seem to have distracted her from the bear and enjoyed the rest of her lessons.

Overall, a successful first day of swim lessons for our lil fishes. They are already looking forward to next weeks.
