first swim class

We signed Matt Matt up for swim classes in January for Thursdays. Unfortunately, I've only managed to attend one of them as work got in the way, Matt Matt was just recovering from a cold and then James and I got hit by the flu pretty bad. Matthew kindly shared his germs he caught from school with us and it just wiped out the whole family :(

Since mommy and daddy do not have the skills of swimming under their belts, we've decided to send our little one year old to learn! His first swim class went very well. We were unsure of how Matthew would do as the only water experience we've had was either during bath time and just once in the waters in Hawaii (and that we were very, very close to shore). Matthew enjoyed splashing and being on his belly. The only time he rebelled was when he had to be on his back. During another class (that I didn't get to attend :( ), Matthew got dunked into the water and seemed to really enjoy it! Yay for our one year old! He makes us so proud!
