Lucas's Swim Lessons

Lucas's Swim Lessons
Feb 17- Mar 5

Lucas had his three weeks of swim lessons this month.  His teacher was Pam, just like the girls.  They are intense 10 minute lessons, four per week, for three weeks.  He was so excited for his first day and ran straight for the water.  He did great, and was pretty happy the whole time.  The second day she pushed him a little harder and he wasn't so sure.  He cried through the next couple of lessons.  He would cry out for "mommy," which made me want to jump in and save him!  Good thing I didn't though!  By the second week he was comfortable again, and only got upset when she pushed the swimming part.  He liked to immediately flip to his back, which is what we really want from him anyway.  Even when he wasn't so sure about the whole thing, he walked on his own over to get in the water and never complained about going.  He learned so much, and will now float and kick in the bathtub on his own!  I'm excited to see him take off this summer and use his new skills!



 Lucas so excited for his first day!








 Matt got to come watch on the last day.


 He LOVED the toys!  That was a highlight each time getting to explore a new toy during lessons.  He also liked finding the rings on the steps, and "driving the car" with the rings as the steering wheel.
