Swimming Lessons

Cash began swimming lessons Sat. March 6 and they go until May 1. All three of us are having such a wonderful time! So far, Cash has been for 3 weeks. The first week, he did really good, but by the end of 45 minutes, he was cold and was done. They taught us how to old Cash in the water and just getting him use to the water and kicking. He has always been a kicker. We lay him on the floor on his belly and he just kicks away, so we knew swimmng would be easy for him. In the last two weeks, we have been working on the back float and blowing bubbles. The first time we did the backfloat with Cash, he wasn't too sure about it, but by this week, he was doing it with no problem. He really is not scared of the water at all. The ages for this group are from 6 months to 3 years. There are a couple other little ones about Cash's age and they aren't yet able to put the back of their heads in the water yet. They still lean their heads against their parent's shoulders. Now blowing bubbles is another story. Cash loves to watch us blow bubbles, but he would rather eat the water instead of blow. We are working with him at home on how to put your lips together and blow to make noise, so he doesn't continue eating water. This week, Cash started slapping the water, like dad. He splashes in his face, stops, then does it all over again. I really think we are going to have a fish on our hands! Here are pics from the first week!
