When Mama and Daddy told me, a few months ago, that I would have to take swimming lessons this year, I was not happy about it.
I was scared and worried.
Well, we started swimming lessons three weeks ago and I love it!
For the first two weeks, both Tommy and I learned from Ethan and he is SO cool!
From the first day, I just jumped right in and started splashing around.
Tommy didn't like it so much. He wouldn't get off the steps unless Ethan dragged him.
Audrey wasn't allowed in the water, so Mama brought her a bowl and some spoons to play with water away from the pool. She really liked that.
After a few days, Tommy decided he wasn't going to learn how to swim. Every time Ethan asked him to do something, he curled up and screamed and cried. He's pretty stubborn.
I tried to be a good example for him. When Ethan told me to jump, I jumped.
Turned out, jumping was the one thing Tommy liked doing.
And once he was in the water, he liked it.
In the end, he even rode on the kick-board! But he never really connected with Ethan, so a week ago, I moved on to the next class level and Ethan stayed my teacher, but Tommy got a new teacher--Emily.
I think Tommy likes girls, because now that Emily is his teacher, he can't stay out of the water!
Just like Me!
Oh, I love the water! I love floating and kicking around on the kick-board.
Did you know I can put my whole head under the water now and hold my breath for a long time--ten seconds sometimes! It's especially fun if I'm wearing my goggles and can see everything.
I like floating on the noodle too. I am just such a good swimmer!
We really have such a good time swimming.
And I know one little someone who gets a little jealous!
Poor Audrey!
