It IS fun to stay at the YMCA!

We had our second swimming lesson today at the Y and I'm very proud to say that we made it through the entire class! Whoo hoo! Except there was this tad, itsy-bitsy bit of crying around the half-way point, but the good news is we were able to recover from it and continue on. I'm so thankful for that. Saved by the cute rubber duckies that distracted Asher!

Asher really enjoyed checking out the other babies, especially this cute older chick that was next to us during circle time. She was 6 months old and Asher google eyed her a lot. Asher also almost dunked all the way under water! This is one thing we are encouraged to do with our babies, but don't have to either. Last week I didn't even attempt it, but today we went up to Asher's nose. He did swallow a bit of water, which he wasn't crazy about, but he just coughed a little and was back on track.

I'm looking forward to more swimming lessons coming up. I think the more Asher gets used to them, the more he will enjoy them.
