Moving on up!

For the past year Oliver has been in the Baby and Me class at The Swim School.  A couple of months ago we were told that Oliver was going to be moved up to the next class, and that we should try to prepare him for the change.  Ha...ok!

The major changes in moving up to the next class are that Jacob will no longer be in the pool with him and that he will have to sit on his turtle and wait for his teacher to come and get him.  Also changing classes meant that we had to change the day and time we come.  That can limit us when we both work, so we picked Saturday mornings.

Well it has been two weeks and lets just say we are still adjusting.  His teacher said that he is doing well, but it is hard to see he crying and upset when this should be a fun thing.

Poor thing was shaking he was so cold!

He does really well sitting on his turtle and I think it will just take some time to get comfortable with his teacher.  I on the other hand am having issues of my own with the way the new class works, but I am trying to stay positive and give it time!

 I can't believe it has been a year since we started swim lessons.  He has learned so much and I am so very proud of my big boy!
