That's a Wrap

Lane went to his last swim lesson Wednesday.

After 7 short days of lessons he knows how to:
blow bubbles in the water
float away from Mom or Dad
scoop things up in the water with his arms (the beginnings of a doggie paddle)
hold his breath underwater
swim underwater to the side of the pool
grab the wall and pull himself up
climb out of the pool
jump in
stare at Dad upside down through his legs
Now, before you imagine this amazing baby swimming you should know he does all these things with some help. I will tell you it is pretty amazing to see how much more comfortable and happy he is in the water since we started lessons last week. Watch out Michael Phelps!

Oh, and Lane did get his certificate of completion and his teacher told me he passed the class. I didn't realize that passing a 15 month old wasn't an option!
