End of First Swim Class

Gabriel just completed his first swim class.  He officially graduated from Pike to Pike Plus.  It's a big deal.  In 6 short weeks he went from just playing in the water to having more confidence in himself and can swim on his own.  His class did focus a lot of using the noodles as support, but he was swimming on his own and the noodle got in his way. 

Gabe had a great teacher, Joan, who guided him along the way.  She really made his class fun for him.  If you remember at the beginning of the lessons he was a tearful kid sitting on the side of the pool.  Now he can't wait for swim lessons!

On Sunday's Scott and I take the boys up to the Y to play while we work out then swim.  Gabe has really been able to show us his new skills and pass some of it along to water-fearless, Bennett.

Congratulations Gabriel on your first (of many) swim report cards!
