Swim lessons

We signed up for swim lessons this past month. Hudson wasn't so sure about things at first, but he definately warmed up to it over the last few weeks!

Hudson's favorite part was when they sang the "motor boat" song and got to kick and splash.

Me and the other mommies got in the pool with our kiddos because they are all pretty young and still not so sure about people they don't know. Finally at the last couple lessons, Hudson would swim with his teacher, Kym (she brought suckers :)... she knows what is dear to a 2-year-old's heart)


Here he is showing off his prized sucker!

We had a lot of fun with swimming lessons, and Hudson is doing really well. He will now put his face in the water and look around. He is really good at kicking (when he wants to), and is getting more comfortable all around. I am glad he likes the pool because we will be spending a LOT of time there since this heat has come full force!

This is the best age. I've just started teaching Hayden how to swim and he loves it. We put toys on the bottom of the steps and then he holds his breath and I help him get the toy. It's worked wonders.

Would you mind sending me the pictures you have with Josie?

So cute!! And if Porter would have sat still, then they would have been able to get it out. They couldnt hold him down...and he wouldnt lay there still...thats why they had to put him out. to get him to calm down!! Porter is a fighter!! After he was out, it came out in like 15 seconds!!

I am glad he likes it. I tried lessons with Benson last year and neither of us had fun. We might try it again in another year or so. Cute pics.
