During the month of April, Charlie is taking swim lessons. It is mostly a glorified bath, with a few tips from a young instructor. But it is lots of fun, and we get to interact with other babies and mommys and daddys.
Charlie loves to kick, in or out of the water, so he has been pretty natural in the water. Don't worry, we don't let him float by himself, or throw him in or anything...we just play and sing motorboat and other cute songs to help him get accustomed to being in the water.
The following set of pictures are from the second lesson, the first one Dan was at. It is twice a week, and on one day I get in the water, one day Dan does.
