Jackson's Swim Lessons
















Jackson is learning how to swim like a big boy. The class was wonderful. He really learned A LOT. It was suppose to be a 2 week class BUT since he busted his chin open the first day of class we had to shorten the class to 1 week but for 2 hours instead of 1. Due to the 2 hours straight, when he got home he was hungry. We are still working with him because he will not put his chin down so he tries to swim with his head up therefore, his bottom sinks. So now we play the chin down game. Just whenever i think about it, i say "chin down" and anyone who is listening (mom, dad, Jackson or anyone who knows the game) puts their chin down. This way when he hears it in the water he is already programed to put his chin down. It seems to be working. There were 2 teachers of the class. The main one was Ms Lynn, who is in her 70's. She has been teaching for years. I think Jackson got a lot out of it. He really loves the water. Now if we can just talk someone into building a pool (NANNA and GRANBUNK). Hahahaha, yes one of the pictures we caught him in the act of using the great outdoors as his potty (I posted the less obvious picture, LOL).
