Our 2nd attempt at swimming lessons

Today Jaime attempted swimming lessons for the second time... this time round things are very different ie Jaime is about 4-5 kg bigger, he is alot more alert, has way more head control and I'm a lot more chilled out in the water. All of these point contributed to a successful first 'lesson"


The first lesson was pretty chilled, granted I know the teacher personally so we chatted more than swam lol but the whole aim was to get Jaime comfortable in the pool, used to the temperature, used to Enid and the new sensation of the water. We did do a few exercises as a tester which Jaime enjoyed thoroughly. So I'm really happy that we've finally joined the swimming society!

Entering the pool....

ok ok the intro to the pool was not quite "exciting" to Jaime... think he was remembering the first attempt...refer to pics below

but pretty soon he got used to the warm water, the toys, Enid ...

check out my Olympic swimmer!!
