Swimming Lessons

Logan just finished up a 2 week session of swimming lessons at the Rec-Plex, an indoor recreation facility in St. Peters. He is a bit timid in the water, but every morning he eagerly put his swimming trunks on, so at least we know he enjoyed the lessons! Part of the fun was taking the class with 3-year-old friend Nate.

Logan never dunked his head under the water, but he walked in shoulder-deep water, blew bubbles, kicked in a prone position, "jumped in" from the side, and spent some time on a kickboard. His favorite activity was chasing after rings the teacher threw into the water.

At the end of his last lesson today, Logan asked when he could take more swimming lessons. We're taking that as a good sign -- and more swimming lessons will likely be on the agenda later in the fall. Many thanks to Nate's mom, Sherry, for the great pictures!
