It was an eventful day today in the Grey house. Now that Carson is 3, he is able to start swimming lessons at the YMCA, just like big brother Aidan. He announced this morning to Jason that he was not swimming. So we figured we were going to have some issues getting him into the pool. As we arrived at the YMCA, he said that he wanted Aidan to go first. Well, we don't make the lesson times and Carson had to go first. So we got to the lockerroom and he got his suit on. He didn't want to go, but I told him that we should go see if there are any other kids in the pool. Jason took Aidan upstairs to watch in the big window and I took Carson out. He was very hesistant. Luckily his class was already sitting with their feet in the pool, so I suggested that Carson go sit by the edge and put his feet in. He seemed to be okay and so I left to go upstairs to watch. By the time I was up in the window it was his turn to take a ride on the kicking dumbbells thingy (yes this is the technical term!) and he had a huge smile on his face! He had a great time swimming with all of his new friends and since there were so many, he had 2 teachers.
Once his class was done, I went down to get him from the pool and he wouldn't get out! He loved it! He was upset that Aidan now got to go swimming and he had to leave.
I asked Carson what he thought of swimming and he said "good. I liked splashing and kicking and jumping in."
He took a great 2 hour nap in the afternoon and can't wait to go back next week.
