Swimming Lessons 2009








Swimming lessons went really well this year considering neither of the kids wanted anything to do with it last year. They love being in the water, but up until this year, they were still not very comfortable in the water. As the 2 weeks went on, I could see Chloe doing more in the water than she ever had before. Caiden loves to go under now and stay down there for a while! It makes me nervous as a mom, but I know he can do it! ;) On the last day of lessons, they put life jackets on the kids and they got to go down the big slide by themselves with someone catching them at the bottom. Caiden fell instantly in love with this activity and the whole hour was spent going down the slide. Chloe went down, but with her teacher, but now she will go down by herself as long as we are at the bottom to catch her. I love that they are getting more and more independent in the water and can't wait to see them really swimming soon!
