Swimming Lessons

Dear Conor,

We are now participating in your second session of Water Babies through Kennebunk Recreation.  This session is held at Quest Fitness every Saturday morning at 9am.  You continue to LOVE the water and the ability to bring you to a pool on a weekly basis is enjoyable for both Daddy and I as well.  Often we both get in the pool with you but on this particular day (October 20) I sat out so that I could take some pictures and videos of all you have learned!

Participaing in Circle Time
This session you have really started to blossom in class.  You are very vocal when we do singing in a group and you LOVE to splash your hands in the water.  You are trying to blow bubbles but you haven't quite figured it out so you often get a little sip of the water with each try.  You are kicking your feet when you swim now - SO excited about this!  You no longer have to be lifted off the wall as you freely fall forward into the water each time.  You also have adopted a special toy at swimming lessons that you play with each class - its a sea captain.  Daddy or I throw him into the water and you jump in after him!

Kicking your Feet
I was able to get a little video of you jumping off the wall and swimming - its not the best quality but you are able to see your little legs moving under the water!

Happy Swimming little man!

Mommy
