Nick ready for his very first swim lesson.
He had no problem getting into the water but did cry for about 20 minutes of the lessons for mommy. No fear of the water and he did everything Jack asked him to do but just cried for me.
He was practicing his ice cream scoop arms. This was before the crying had started.
He really liked Jack and he had amazing amounts of patience with Nick those first couple of days.
Listening to Jack very seriously.
Time to practice our leg kicking.
2nd day we practice chop, chop, timber and there was less crying times :-)
Katherine did not like waiting for Nick cause she wanted to be in the water as well.
4th day Katherine & daddy waiting while Nick was swimming. There was no more crying by this point.
Practicing floating on his back. He did good with it but he did tell he didn't really like doing that part.
Play time in the little pool. The last 5 minutes of class is free time in a small pool. This was Nick's favorite time cause he would play hide and seek with Jack. Or just wrestle with him. Like I said before Jack was great and obviously liked kids to do this job.
Nick kicking back before going to another swim lesson.
Last day of swim lessons for Nick and he was swimming under water like a fish.
Katherine showing off her new smile. She is currently missing 4 teeth :-)
Float time again and he did it.
Time to practice jumping in. Some of the time Jack would hold him. Other times he had Nick jump in and swim to him to make sure he could do it.
Ready, set, JUMP!
Play time in the little pool for the last time :)
The boys had a water fight and had a blast.
