Swimming Lessons- Week Two

Week two of swimming lessons started off a little better than the first week for Will. He and his friend, Collin, were the only kids in their class!

Will actually got in the water with the teacher right off- and they did some swimming around but Collin was pretty unsure of the whole situation. Once Will saw that Collin wasn't getting in the water, he wanted out too! It was a good start but they didn't last the whole time in the pool.



Luckily (at least for the teacher), on the second day, another little boy joined the class and he actually stayed in and Will and Collin would watch him a little. The teacher was very patient with them!

On the third day, she was very creative and would throw balls then convince Will and Collin to go with her to get them and then she'd take them out to practice their ice cream scoop arms or kicking. Every time she brought them to the steps- they'd get out and sit on the side till it was their turn again (the water was a bit cold).


Addie did awesome in her class- she was gaining a lot of confidence and having fun swimming and being with her friends!

Unfortunately, the last two days of lessons were canceled because their pool heater was broken and the water was too cold for the kids. Will was happy- but Addie was a little disappointed (maybe a little relieved she didn't have to try the diving board again)! I'm so glad she's enjoying it and having a great time- especially with me being on the other side of the pool with Will the whole time!!
