Swimming Lessons!

 The boys did swim lessons the last couple of weeks, and it was so much fun! This was their first swim class, so they were able to take it together. They loved going every morning :) And so did I.. oddly enough. haha

The teacher they had was amazing. She got them to do things (like floating on their backs and putting their head under the water) that I could never get them to do!

Jack passed with flying colors and will be taking the next class up. Blake is going to take the first class again, which doesn't surprise me considering he is only 3 and won't put his head under from more than a second! haha. Cute little guy. AND with the next set of classes, Ty and I will also being getting in the water for a 'Mommy & Me' class! YAY. I am super excited.

Jack was a little splash happy.. so the last day I asked him if he could please not splash all the other kids and explained to him why. He sweetly replied, " Okay, Mom. I will try my best to not splash the other kids. I don't want to promise you that I won't, because if I forget and splash someone, I don't want you to think I was lying."

What a heartwarming thing to hear.. and kinda surprising to hear from a 5 year old! He really has a good heart. But yes.. he did still splash a few times, but you could tell he was really trying not to. Afterwards he told me he was trying his very best to remember. 

The last day they also got to stay and play for about a half hour. It seems already they have had so much more confidence in the water - which is awesome to see!

  1. Yay good for them! I signed Kaden and Lexi up for the first class, too, but they don't start until next month. Jack is such a sweetheart!
