Cam started swim lessons this week and is really enjoying them. The week started out with 2 girls and another boy in his class, but the little boy stopped coming on Thursday. So of course it's Cam & the ladies. His instructor is even a woman!
Ms. Melissa is teaching them to blow bubbles, ice cream scoop hands, superman arms, airplane arms, and of course to kick. Cam's setback is that he hates to get his face and ears wet, so he won't put his face all of the way in the water or float on his back very well. Ms. Melissa even tried to 'trick' him to putting his face in the water, but he still refused. She put her whistle on her knee, under water and told him to grab it. Instead of putting his face in to see it under water, he just reached down and felt around till he found it. Little trickster.
He will, however, jump full on into the pool with no problems. Somehow he manages to keep his head pretty much out of the water then too. I'm thinking he won't be an Olympic swimmer, but at least he's having fun!
