We started swimming lessons last week and the boys love them. It's a very basic class that is helping with our fear of water. Now they love the pool and want to go all.the.time. Sadly, we don't have a pool membership, and they have to settle for 30 minute lessons for two weeks. This is our last week of lessons, and I'm hoping that they will get brave enough to put their face in the water. The lifeguards aren't very forceful in making these stubborn boys get their face wet, but we have 3 more days, so we'll see what happens. Andrew's class has 5 kids and one lifeguard, and Jonathan's class is a mommy and me class, where the lifeguards tell me how to teach him to swim. Umm, maybe I should've told them that I can't really swim either and they should teach me first. And Hannah hangs out in her stroller. She's such a trooper since these lessons are right during her morning nap. She's pretty happy just to watch as long as someone gives her a toy every now and again. Maybe I'll start her in lessons next summer and she'll get her face in the water.
