Swim lessons

This last Thursday wrapped up the girls 1st session of swim lessons. They both did great. Kaitlyn wasn't a huge fan of the cold water and decided she didn't want to swim one day. Once she found out that she wasn't going to learn how to swim if she didn't get in the pool (duh!) she decided it would be a good idea to get back in the next day. I think having a new swim suit helped :) Natalie is doing so good. She can swim underwater almost 1/2 the width in one breath, going almost the entire way unassisted. She is even learning some stokes and is quite proud to show off in our little blow up pool at home.

Doing the free style

Learning the backstroke

Simon Says......

.....blow bubbles...

......kick your feet.....

Swimming out to her teacher


Their favorite part at the end of the lesson...

....jumping off the edge!!!

The last day of lessons everyone gets to jump off the diving board. Just like the previous 2 years, Natalie was first in line in her class.


And Kaitlyn jumped twice.....she probably would have gone all day if she could!

Success!! The girls are excited for another session starting Monday!!
