Swimming is over rated...

Well, its over rated according to Boogie. Last week the boys started swim lessons. I couldn't wait to get them in the water! It's another one of those parenting milestones that I couldn't wait to check off the list. We'd already done a school play, we'd already lost a first tooth, and we'd already had our first fist fight....it was time to throw on some frigging floaties and get down to business!!

Mason couldn't wait to get into the water. He was so excited I thought he was going to pee himself. And he did, in the pool...he told his entire class. As for Boogie...well...he's not so much a fish in the water as he is a CAT in the water. This is how he spent his ONE and ONLY swim class....


Like a terrified kitty up in a tree. It broke my heart that he was so scared, but at the same time I couldn't help but laugh at this picture. He was NOT going in that water and there was no talking him into it. Trust me, I tried. I sweet talked, I bribed, I threatened, I begged. Nothing. Zip. Nada.

So with one class under his belt Boogie has officially 'thrown in the towel'. HA!! Get it?! The towel?! Swim...yeah..anyway. But, at least I get to check it off my list. And Mason still gets to pee in the pool, so it's pretty much a win-win.
