Swimming swimming!

Today we started swimming lessons again... but this time... Alexander was in class without Mommy or Daddy.  There were a few tears for 29 minutes of the 30 minutes of class.  I am so proud for Alex for persevering!  Way to go buddy!


Checking out the scene before class started.  
We talked about it for a day to prepare you.  You woke up today saying "I want to go swimming."
 When time came for class, Alex walked right out onto the deck and grabbed a swimming noodle.  Then he took a shower with the instructor and went into the water.  I think that's when the tears started.
 He is the one in the sunshine...
 Between the instructors...
 Climbing out to escape, 
and then getting back in... following directions!

 Swimming out to the platform with his teacher's help!
 Not a fan of sitting on the wall today...
 The instructors are so patient and kind

 Happy to be warm and dry
And he said 'thanks' when he was done!

 Way happier after getting a measuring tape at Mommy's doctor appointment.


 We love you silly boy!
