Dyer Swim

Dyer decided that he wanted to do swimming again!  I was a little worried because last time he was too afraid to go on the platforms so I put him back in the younger class on the stairs.  I didn't have anything to worry about.  Dyer got right in and never looked back!  He only went a week his first session as a tadpole because Blakely got Chicken pox and I was worried that Dyer might get it too. Valerie called the center and they told us Dyer couldn't attend his class for the rest of the session.  It turned out that Dyer was fine but oh well.  We signed him up for the next session.  Valerie was kind enough to take Dyer to swim almost everyday.  Things got a little crazy with Blair in gymnastics at first and then eventually Easton and Blair playing soccer.  I felt bad that I wasn't able to go to all of Dyer's swim practices but of course he didn't care as long as Valerie took him.  In fact there were days when I could have went and he told me that he only wanted Valerie to take him.  Such a turkey! 

Swimming underwater

This is how he was the majority of the time.  He kept getting in trouble because he wouldn't keep his face above the water.

It's hard to see but Dyer's giving a thumbs up!

Swimming by himself!

Dyer ended up doing really well at swimming.  He passed his class but he wanted to sign up for gymnastics instead.  Maybe that's a good thing since it's fall and the weather is getting cooler.
