Just keep swimming

So this is the month for swimming.  Jackson is in lessons and we are using our water park passes heavily during the 2 weeks between Tom's semesters.  He starts school 2 weeks before Jackson even does.  Anywho...swim lessons.  They made Jackson's issues even more apparent to us and kind of made me want to cry.  However, we saw some improvement on Day 2 (technically day 3 except for the mishap that caused us to miss the first day).  He still cried a LOT and didn't do everything he was asked, but there were more smiles this time.  Hopefully tomorrow shows even more improvement.  then he has 4 more days next week.










This is the slide he is almost tall enough for...so close..

Today was our first day at the water park.  The kids had a lot of fun.  There are only 4 rides the kids aren't allowed on.  We let Jackson try 2 of the big slides.  They also loved the kid slides and the wave pool and the lazy river.  I got fried because I sprayed everyone else with sunscreen and forgot myself.  Boo...  We are going back tomorrow and I won't forget this time!


I think he did this about 100 times...he doesn't even need help

Sometimes he plugs his nose

Belle is afraid to go alone

This one was stepper and he aimed between the spouts but he loved it.  They closed it later

Lazy river





Tom wanted to ty the pink slide before we left

Now that we know what we are doing, we are going again tomorrow...I'm sure I will take more pictures.  After the park, we ate lunch and rested.  Then it was time for Jackson's second swim lesson.  Today he had a melt down and I had to take him out and talk to him, but after that he did well.  there were tears but he did well.  Hopefully tomorrow will be even better.

Belle swam a bit and danced for us
