Swim Lessons

Summer is here again and so are swim lessons.  I am so grateful that my kids like the water and enjoy swimming and playing.

Brett and Ellie Swim Lessons

June 4, 2012
School has ended and here comes summer.  Enter swim lessons.  For two weeks Monday - Thursday Brett and Ellie went to swim lessons.  They love it and get so excited when I tell them it is time to get ready.

Go Brett!

Back float Brett

Here I go!

Wheeeeee!

YES!

I am so proud and happy for Brett.  Swimming does not come easy for him, a couple of years ago all he could do is sink.  He has improved so much especially the last two weeks.  His teacher was very impressed with him and his willingness to try and keep trying.  Right now he can can swim for a little then flip over to his back for breath and quick rest then flip back over and keep going.

Swim Lessons

Brett had swim lessons in July and he loved it (again) and did well. Here is a picture of him underwater.

Ellie and I had a mom and tot swim group and though she was a bit hesitant at first but she soon loved the water and didn't mind going under a few times. She needs to work on keeping her mouth closed as you can tell in the picture.

Brett's Swim Lessons

This was Brett's first year of swim lessons, we've done mommy-n-me classes the last two summers. Brett did fairly well, his body wanted to be a submarine but he worked and worked on floating. He loves the water and really enjoyed his lessons.
