5th Swim Class April 21

Brandon had his 5th swim class and he is doing sooooo good. Daddy went in the water with Brandon this time and they worked on floating this class. And of course Brandon was a good floater! Daddy just held his head and and he kept the rest of his body floating.... which is what the instructor looks for. He is able to go UNDER water for about 2 seconds now- he keeps his mouth closed when he is under- smart boy:) Now that he is more comfortable in the class- he splashs around more- he is still the youngest in the class (they start at 6 months old) but he is progressing fast! We can't wait for lake season and to see how he does there!

2nd Swim Class

Brandon enjoyed his swim class more this week. He is definately getting used to the water and wasn't holding on so tight. This time mommy went in the water with him and we worked on a few things. With learning it's all about repetition, repetition!! We worked on kicking, sitting on the side of the pool and coming in on our command. He also went UNDER the water! The teacher suggested this since he was in a good mood the whole class. To our surprise.... he didn't cry at all. He was a little startled but did really well. til next swim class....

First Swim Class

Brandon has started swim class on Wednesdays for 30 min:) His goal for now is to start to like the water, enjoy class and eventually go under! Daddy went in the water with him the first class and overall he did well. He wasn't so sure about all the loud noise but he likes the water. He held on to daddy a lot but we were very proud of him.
