swimming lessons

I was smart this year. I signed up my youngest for swimming lessons before school got out and before it got too hot. In my very pregnant state, I knew I could not sit through the hot summer. So, for the past 8 weeks, this little girl has been in heaven. She has gotten to be quite a little swimmer and has now entered the "scary" stage where she thinks she can swim more than she can.


All my kids have had "miss Kim" who is the best.
Does she look like she is having fun. She jumps off the diving board and swims to the side to her teacher now. All of the kids like getting the rings the very best, it is the highlight of their class.

She took classes with her best friend Halle. They have so much fun together.
All my kids have been doing a lot of swimming lately. Their dad heats up the hot tub a few degrees and they will stay there for hours. Clara is really into bunny ears right now.

Hopefully this fair skinned little girl will remember her sunscreen this summer.
It will be Clara's first year on swimteam. It starts on Tuesday...more updates to come.
Three sisters swimming together.
And...Nathan has some new exciting news we will post soon.

Oh, those are such cute swimming pictures. Is my memory wrong or is she the happiest swimming lessons swimmer I have seen. It seems like most of them are in agony half the time. Love, Mom
