Swimming Lessons!

Mommy thought it would be a good idea for me to take swimming lessons. I love swimming pools but I wasn't sure if I wanted to go though.  It's at an outdoor swimming pool - so it was a little cold out (45 degrees). But the pool was nice and warm (95 degrees).
At least it was a little bit sunny. My teacher's name is Calvin. I had to ask him about 6 times though.  He told me I had to stand on the ledge on the side unless he was right next to me.  But I jumped into the deep middle a few times when he wasn't looking. Mommy about had a heart attack the first time because the teacher wasn't even in the pool yet.  I thought it was funny.
He let me wear these really cool goggles.  Then he showed me how to blow bubbles with my head under the water. I loved searching for toy squid he put in the pool. I was really good at grabbing them.  But I kept forgetting to take deep breaths before dunking my head, so I swallowed a LOT of swimming pool water.
Look, I'm swimming all by myself.  I should be ready to go in a lesson or two :)  I got to play with 4 other kids who came for their lesson for a few minutes.  I can't wait until next Saturday.
