Little Swimmer

Carter took swim lessons last summer. They went... fine. He cried for the first week and tolerated the second week only because he knew Miss Katie would give him a sucker at the end of each lesson. This year, however, he cried the first day, tolerated the rest of the first week, and then decided that he is 1/2 fish. Seriously, the kid won't stay above water. Good, right? Sure... unless you can't really swim; which is the case with Carter. He doesn't just gracefully go under water, either. No, no. He will stand on the big step, jump, and just flop under water (never leaving the big step where he knows he's safe) and swim around (if that's what you want to call it) gathering toys and rings from below the surface. So... this is the only picture I have managed to take of him. But I assure you, that IS the top of Carter's head. My little fishy. He's loving it!!

That is so amazing, because the last time I went swimming with Carter he wouldn't leave the step! (I guess that was almost a year ago, sad).
