Anna gets really excited before our swimming lessons. Today she wanted to put on her suit about 30 minutes before it was time. She talks about singing and dancing in the big pool all the way there. But when we get to the pool she shows no emotion on her face and still clings pretty tightly to my suit. I know she loves it but probably just gets overwhelmed while we're there. It doesn't help that the pool is not heated so getting in is pretty hard every time (brrr!). She's gone under a few times now, too. She doesn't seem to like it a whole lot, but she doesn't cry and doesn't actually act too agitated by it, so we keep trying it each day (just one or two times per day) just to get used to it.

That's too cute about Anna wanting to get her suit on so early before class! Have the classes been more interesting than the last time you wrote about them?
The classes are more organized which is all that was really wrong with #2. We still just walk in circles and sing songs for the most part but the instructors got organized and made a list of songs for each class after that second day when it was kind of like looking at your watch every couple of minutes wondering how much class was left.
