Sarajo, The swimming went well. I had to do things like walk backwards with his head resting on my shoulder, and move his legs, saying "Kick" over and over LOL to get him to match the motion with the word and also do it for "paddle". I had to sing songs and move him around in the water. The instructor also tips a small bucket of water over their heads, she mostly tipped it down Logans back since he's not very used to it, she told me some words to say as a cue so that hopefully he'll learn to hold his breath when I say "Logan, Ready.. 1.. 2.. Go!" so I have to practice with him in the bath. Maybe in a few weeks he will be able put his head under water, but we'll see.. There were a few toddlers and one other baby 7months, apparently they all started swim classes at his age and sometimes younger.
I think he liked the toys the best though heh. He cried when he got out, I think it was just shock from being in the heated pool for so long.
Rach, thank you.. The only problem with having so many things each week is that we're out most mornings and don't get home until the afternoon or evening so Logan and I have been having naps when we get home in the afternoons but then I can't put him to bed until about 7:30pm. I just feel a bit bad about it, but I think he gets more naps in his pram than he does when I try to get him to sleep during the day at home.
