Swim Lessons

We began taking Bennett to swim lessons this past week. So I know it seems a little pointless but we want to make sure he is comfortable in open water before summer officially arrives. He absolutely loves the bathtub so he does pretty well in the pool too. However, he hates to lie on his back in the pool. He tenses up and tries to sit up. He often sits with his feet crossed as they are in this picture and this is how he is nearly all of the time in the pool especially when we lay him on his back! It's really pretty funny. I can get him to kick like crazy in the tub but he will only splash with his hands in the pool......So our only goals of our three weeks of swim lessons are to become comfortable lying on our back in the water and to kick our legs:)
