Round 2 head out into the Blue

Last week Parker started his Second Swim Lessons course. I took that Monday off from work so finally I was able to see him do a lesson.

 He really enjoyed it however he misses his old instructor and his old swim mates..this class he takes has all girls..well there is one other Boy he said
 They seemed to be not doing to much so I took Ava to the wading pool to keep her cool..it was a HOT day.
 She was so excited at the step I had to tell her it's okay go inside and play
 She loves splashing
 There were a few kids in the pool that looked to be over the age limit.
 I really wanted to go under that fountain..I was sweat'n like a hostage
 Ok..time to go check on Parker Ava..she did not want to leave
 Parker's turn coming up next on the paddle board
He did pretty good. Now that I am thinking about it..I think today was his last day..time to sign him up again for class 3.

Swim Lessons for Parker

This week Parker started his Swim Lessons at Mayfair Park. when I was 10 my mother signed me up for swimming lessons at the same pool. I remembered I was terrified to go in. He was a little nervouse about it too but so far he is loving it. He only wished the classes were longer.

 Ava and Gabe watching from the bleachers.
Parker in the pool. I asked Gabe to take pictures of Parkers first day..he took two and the rest were in video form..hmmm
So far Parker has told me he learned to float on his back,go under water without holding his nose and that they been doing a lot of kicking with the kick boards and some arm strokes while kicking. I think for his next level of swim lessons I am going to change the time for when I come home from work so I can watch. I get so bum that I don't get to see any of the classes and other fun activities that the kids do in the day that Gabe does.

I gotta teach Gabe how to use the camera on the Ipod.
