Last Swim Lesson

Eight weeks passed quickly, and Calvin completed his swim lessons. He enjoyed his time in the pool, but perhaps more notable than his progress in the water were his other changes during this time.

Put simply, he now has two teeth, crawls, and pulls himself up to standing. Might not sound like much, but it was definitely eight weeks of hard work -- particularly with the teeth.

He hasn't mastered the back stroke just yet, but he is comfortable in the water. He can go under without inhaling or come up without gasping for air. And with an inflatable beach ball as a carrot, he almost passes as a swimmer.
