Logan's first swimming lesson

Grumps and Grammy Parrott bought Logan swimming lessons for his birthday. We signed him up for eight weeks of lessons at an athletic club in the area and his first class was on Monday. I think Logan still hadn't caught up on sleep from the time change on Sunday. We had to wake him up Sunday morning for church and then again Monday for swim class. I think all of the rushing around on top of how tired he was caught up with him. I could tell by his face that he wasn't feeling great. He ended up getting sick in the car on both Sunday and Monday. Poor little guy. :( I have been putting him to bed a little earlier so that he will catch up.

When we made it to swim class he still wasn't feeling great. He wasn't very happy when I was rushing to get him cleaned up and changed. This is the picture I took of him before the class. I think putting the sandals on his feet (making it harder for him to walk) was the last straw. I was a little nervous about doing the class after a morning like that but thought as long as he took it easy it might help his stomach feel better if he was just kind of floating in the water.


Thankfully he didn't cry or get sick during the lesson. He kept a very straight face for the first 5-10 minutes. After that he started "talking" to the other babies. They played with balls in the water. He was even dipping his face in and blowing bubbles. By the end he didn't want to get out of the water because he was having so much fun. I am sure he will be excited when he figures out that we are going back next week.

Here is a picture of him feeling much better after the lesson. He drank some juice and was really hungry afterwards too.

 
 
 We had a lot of fun and can't wait until next week!
