Swimming Lessons

The boys are enjoying swimming lessons so much. Cooper goes twice a week and Charlie goes once a week. Charlie is in the clown fish class where he has to have a parent with him. We sing a lot of songs in his class. He really enjoys it. Cooper is in the tadpole class and really enjoys it. He does the back float, the front float, blows bubbles, gets to be on his teachers back, hold on and go completely under the water. He is very comfortable in the water. They practice kicking with a big marshmallow stick. They get to jump in (both boys love this), and they have to get themselves out by hanging on the side and climbing the wall to get out. It was hard for Coop at first, but he can do it now. The teacher recommended that he moves up to the next level, which is Turtle. We are very proud of him. Cooper has 7 more lessons. Charlie goes for about 8 more weeks. He gets to go as many times as his brother, but only once a week. Swimming is so much fun!
