swim lessons

Oliver had his first swim lessons this week without having a parent in the water. This was a big step for him, especially since it's been over a year since the last time he has taken a lesson. We went to a great outdoor pool (which are hard to come by in Seattle) and he had a great week. He made a lot of progress and went from not wanting to get into the water on the first day, to not wanting to get out on the last day. I'm going to sign him up for one more session next month, and I'm hoping I can get Elliott into a class as well.
