Our Summer ~ Part 2

On July 1st, Miles started two weeks of swimming lessons. The first week he did great and seemed to love every minute of it. The second week didn't go as smoothly. Dave kept saying it was as if over the weekend he forgot how much he loves to swim. He refused to get in at all one day and would wait until almost the end of class to get in a couple of days. Dave finally figured out that if he would sit him on the edge of the pool and let his feet dangle in the water, that he'd decide to get in after only a few minutes. Huge improvement over what he had been doing. I think Miles also had a favorite teacher picked out the first week and she didn't return to second week so that might've thrown him off too. He did pick up a lot from class and became pretty independent in the water. He loves having the life jacket on too so he can go in the deep end without holding on to mom or dad.

Silly boy

Ohhhh, Liam did the exact same thing during his swimming lessons! It's nice to know he was not the only kid to do that! :)
