At the moment Zach's favourite DVD is Nemo and we watch it every chance he gets. Last night we watched from start to finish 1.5 times.
Zach is going great at swimming and everytime i say it's time for swimming he says "swimming in the water (pause) like Nemo".
His swimming is really taking off. Tonight he had an assessment to see if he is ready to go upto transition 2 (no mummy in the pool yay! Doing the happy dance) but i think he needs a few more weeks yet. He is the daredevil of the class, jumping into the water before we finish songs etc. Running along the floating mat and launching himself off the side, i have to be quick to make sure he makes his way up to the surface. He's even started just dunking his face in the water for the fun of it. Going great with paddling and kicking too.
Tonight we started him swimming on a noodle by himself, he did really well, mouth just went in the water a few times. He seems to be going great, just gotta get his confidence up being away from me and then nothing will stop him. Big change from the kicking and screaming little boy only 6 weeks ago. He loves it.

Isn't it GREAT and SCARY at the same time that they're soooo confident in the water. Jorja is the same, her little legs don't stop once she hits the water!!
Go Zach, its sounds like he is really enjoying swimming. Has he heard the Wiggles song "swimming like a fish"? Too cute that he is "like Nemo".
