Earlier this month we enrolled Cale in swimming lessons. For two weeks in the evenings he swam at Holiday Pool here in West Des Moines. The first night I thought it was going to be a long 2 weeks. He was about mid-chest in the water, when he exited(quickly). "I'm too nervous, its way too deep" This boy of ours has always been very timid in the water, about mid calf is good for him. Colby on the other hand, I'm pretty sure is part clown fish, the other part of him being just clown, but that's a whole other blog.
We went to Holiday that first week a couple times during the day just so he could get comfortable in the water where he was doing his lessons. He did so good. These pictures are of the 2nd to last night. We finally got to go out to the pool area, they keep the parents fenced into the concession area. Good idea, probably so they can't run to their mommies for help.
The first picture is of Cale and Miss Megan doing a front float, and the second picture is of Cale and some classmates waiting in line to go off the diving board. Now that is some serious progress.
Yesterday when we went to the pool, he was jumping in, completely underwater, swimming, without even plugging his nose. Yeah Cale!
