Swimming Lessons

Ryan and Katelyn are taking swim lessons again this summer. This is their second year- each session is eight days- 45 minutes a lesson. When they get home, they are absolutely beat! Today was the first day I was able to watch their lesson- and tomorrow is their last day. Debbie is really great to make sure that they get to attend cool activities like swimming. I don't know what I'd do without her. Here's Katelyn enjoying a little downtime at the side of the pool. She's anxiously awaiting her turn to swim across the pool. Monkey-Airplane-Solider-she chants this all the time trying to remember what to do with her legs in the water.Katelyn doing the freestyle across the pool. Much improved from last year- she actually makes it almost halfway across the pool before taking a breath. Last year she looked more like a drowning rat!
This is Ryan doing a front float. He's so excited- he learned how to do a front somersault in the water! Very impressive. This kid has no fear of the water! He loves to go to swim lessons!Ryan loves to go down the slide during free time. I missed his best slide of the day- too slow with the camera. He actually tried to go down backward and ended up doing a backwards flip halfway down the slide. It took some convincing to get him to go down again!
