Swimming Lessons!

Sorry I am so behind in my posting! I still wanted to share some pictures from about a month ago of Evelynn's swimming lessons! She seriously had so much fun, and asks all of the time when she gets to take them again. Next summer, sweetie, next summer...

Some of the pictures include, "going on a treasure hunt" (that means finding toys in the pool), "going on a boat safari" (that means getting on a giant kickboard with other kids), tentative Evelynn deciding whether she can jump in the pool by herself, and on the last day they got to go down the slide with the lifeguard! I was really impressed with Evelynn's progress. After teaching swim lessons myself for so many years, it was awesome to see my own child benefit from peer pressure and different authority figures. She now puts her face in the water to swim all of the time and kicks her feet for mobility. We are still working on arm movements, but are super happy with the amount of confidence she now has in the water!


Now, while big sister was taking lessons, Sissy got to play in the spray park area of the pool. I had to snap a few shots of her on our last day too!
