swimming lessons

A few weeks back Benjamin took a few swimming lessons with his daycare.

It was a bit different then the other swimming lessons he did before because this time it was outside and second it was with a stranger and not his mom. So the first day he cried and cried and cried..the poor girl..I wanted to offer her ear plugs or something ..he was so loud but she insisted that he stayed in the water and just continue with the lesson.  Then the very next day, he only cried for half of the lesson..he cheered up when she let him splash her.. Then the third day only five minutes and by the forth he was racing to the pool!

He did very well by the last few days.. jumping in the water and swimming on his own. I took a few videos and he loves watching them on my phone saying "splash" and "jump".
