Splish Splash



Today we went to the splash park with our playgroup and Andrew had a blast! He loved running through the water and playing with all the kids. He would run and scream and jump in all the water. He wanted to follow all the big boys around and had to be reminded that he had to be gentle with the little guys. He also swung on the swings for a bit and had such a good time.



We also had our second swimming lesson. I will have to say, yesterday, he did much better. He is having no trouble with the swimming, it is with mommy not swimming too. He screamed bloody murder until it was time to "swim" under water, then he was just fine and relaxed and would swim. Then he would come up for air and all hell broke loose. I shouldn't have been surprised. Before we left for class I was telling him that he was going to go to swim school and he had to listen to his teacher. He would then ask me "mommy swim too?" and when I would say no he would tell me "not yet" meaning ,now I know, that he is not swimming without mommy swimming too. I hope he won't be like that tomorrow or for the next 4 weeks or so. At least he will be able to "swim and cry" at the same time.
