swim lessons, round two

When Hudson was about 8 months old he had his first swim lesson. Yes, ONE swim lesson. He ended up with a double ear infection so we didn't take him back…until today. I was sure he would be thrilled to be in that pool, and we even met his friend Mona there. Well, i was wrong. Completely. Not only did he not want to get in the pool, but once he did he cried the ENTIRE time, clinging on to Andy like a baby monkey. I was with Stella and hadn't worn my bathing suit, which was my first mistake. So we left the pool, and Hudson, wrapped up in his towel, was walking to the car when he tripped and fell - on his face. His hands were wrapped up in his towel so he couldn't break his fall. So our rough morning in the pool got a little worse. But he got lots of TLC, a lollipop and a cookie out of the deal, and seems to be recovering. :) He is not one to "tough it out" when both mom and dad are swooning over him to make sure he's ok. And we felt bad cause it looks like it hurts. So I guess this little boy will get extra special treatment, and we're ok with that.
