Lauren still hates swim lessons

I realize it looks like she is having a great time in these pictures, but she cried through most of the first swim lesson today. Last year she hated swim lessons. She hated floating in the water, kicking her legs, getting her face wet, blowing bubbles, you name it. I figured she might have fun this year so we signed her up again. It started out well with jumping in the water to daddy's arms, climbing back out and jumping in again to daddy. Then came floating and the screaming started. She was the only kid screaming, no just crying, screaming. Mark tried to distract her and play with her but she was having no part of it. Finally when the swim lessons were over the kids were allowed to play in the pool and that was when Lauren began to have some fun.

These pictures were taken during play time after the lessons had ended. She was having a great time with her daddy.



I thought swim lessons would be a good thing for Lauren and daddy to do with the new baby coming. It goes for 6 weeks so we will see how the next 5 lessons go. Hopefully by the last week she will be having fun and not screaming.
