Simming Lessons

So we have finished our first week of swimming lessons. Well, it’s really a Parent/Tot class where one parent gets in the water with the kid. It’s no instruction, just about having fun in the water. Both Jeffrey and Alexis are taking the class and I’ve made some observations:

1. Class is stressful – not the class itself, but getting there and leaving.

2. Most kids cry when they get into the poll, ours cry when they get out.

3. Jeffrey has a ‘crush’ on his swim teacher. He is a flirt, we’ve seen it, .(He once tried to impress a BJ’s waitress by eating hot spaghetti and then spitting it out when she wasn’t looking). This time he swims around trying to get her attention. He tells her Finding Nemo is his favorite movie. 2 weeks ago he told the Pinocchio ride operator Pinocchio was his favorite movie.

4. Alexis likes to splash, but is not fond of being splashed. Her favorite activity is laying on her back against me and kicking her legs. She is happiest this way.

5. Each class ends with a song. I apparently do not know the beginning of “The Wheels on the Bust”.

Here are some pictures of our experiences so far…
