Swim fishies!


The kids started back up with swimming lessons this week. Although it was not Liam's first time in the pool, it was his first 'official' lesson. He looked like he wanted to go to sleep for most of it (not surprising since the lesson started at his bedtime … we’re working on that!), but he did start to enjoy himself at the end and even shared a few cuddles with the instructor!







Ava did so great!! One of her latest accomplishments is that she will kick to the instructor with her face in the water, practically swimming on her own! Her instructor this session happens to be my brother Ian's girlfriend, Bre. Ava had more successes in her one swim lesson this week with Bre than she did all last session. Bre is very good at what she does and we are excited to see her impart that on Ava this session. Ava is going to be very ready for the lake this summer!

Such a great activity to get your children involved in so young. Hazen was absolutely terrified of the water and we kept trying and trying (he'd grip your neck, climb up your body, etc.. starting at a very young age). We finally did a few sessions of swim lessons but stopped again when I had Cannon. Sigh. Your kids sound like they're doing so great with it! I hadn't read blogs in a while, and it was fun to read all the past posts I haven't - hope you're doing great!
