E's first swim class

Ethan LOVES the water.  We have a pool for the backyard, he swims at Nana's house, and we often visit the public pool.  This year, we decided he should try a swim class, so we signed him up for one that started mid-July at Northwest Pool.  While he said he didn't really like it, I think he really did.  He especially liked just going everyday and swimming before and after his class.

His completion certificate

 He didn't end up passing the Turtle level after two weeks of class, so we enrolled him again, this time at Enfield Pool.  I liked this pool a lot better, but apparently Ethan didn't agree.  He cried the whole first class and refused to get in (he did not have this problem in his other class).  Thankfully, it got better, and he started participating.  He could touch in this pool, so he got to play more games and I think he liked that a little better.  After two weeks, he passed, so we were very proud.

Looking for fish?

If he's up for it, we'll probably do it again next year.  It sure was nice going to the pool every day for almost a month.
