Catch-Up Post: Swimming (March 2011)

Grandma and Grandpa were also able to go to swimming lessons with us.  They were excited to see the girls swim and Grandpa did something Brandon and I have never had the courage to do - go out on the deck to take pictures.  He was able to stay out there a few minutes before they told him he was being too much of a distraction!  Luckily, a few minutes is all Kevin needs to really get some good pictures!

Playing before class starts....




Time to swim!

The girls are doing pretty good in swimming.  They both seem to really like it.  This was the 2nd to last month of them being in the same class.  Allison got promoted in May.  She's now actually starting to work on strokes and breathing.  It's pretty cool to watch.  Jordan is still in the goldfish class.  She does really well but has some weeks where she cries all through class.  But then she comes out and tells us how much fun she had and how much she likes swimming.  So we haven't figured that out yet.  

We did figure out that since both girls like to pretend so much, if we have Allison pretend to be a mermaid and Jordan pretend to be Nemo (or Nemo's dad, Marlin) that classes go much better.
