Before our last swimming lesson it felt like such a long time since the session before Christmas. Needless to say we didn’t get to the pool over the Christmas holidays, but N didn’t seem too worried about the break. N…
Today, we got N’s graduation letter and certificate from Water Babies. Sad occasion, but also a sign of how far he’s come. We don’t actually finish with Water Babies until he turns 4, so we’ll swim with them until the…
I can’t believe it’s December already. Everything’s whizzed by the last couple of months, and it’s time to do my third Month of Firsts round up for last month. I thought I would be struggling this month compared to the big…
Although we’ve always swum with Water Babies, N’s had a few teachers during his 3 years of swimming. Mostly to do with changing days, going from a Wednesday to Friday, and for the last 18 months or so, to a…
Both N and I are a tad on the chatty side…(except him on the way home from nursery). I’ve always been of the belief that a child will be a lot more stable and happier if they have things explained…

It feels like we’re on a real roll at the moment with N’s swimming. He’s really enjoying it, and even though there’s certain things he still moans about doing, he will eventually give them a go…if it is only the…
We’ve (well, I’ve) been going to Water Babies swimming lessons with N since he was almost 3 months old. I think that means we’re pretty qualified in sharing thoughts on the differences between baby swimming and toddler swimming (and I’m…
It feels like we haven’t been swimming for ages, although because we finished later than usual, it’s only been around 4 sessions over Summer that weren’t on…oh and then we missed the first 2 lessons of term. I did manage…
While I no longer play sports anymore (aside from doing a bit of swimming), I do love to watch the big sporting events on tv. Even sports I don’t follow or wouldn’t usually be interested in (judo, for example), I…
I think I’ve mentioned before that I’ve been going swimming at lunchtimes to try and get fit, and get back into some semblance of healthy living. Well, the swimming’s going well (also looking healthier thanks to the outdoor pool and building…
