Swim Lessons

I am starting to think God gave me two fishies instead of two babies. They love the water so much. We were able to get in swim lesson's before we left for our Florida vacation. In this picture Cassandra is doing the chicken, airplane, soldier move. She was very lucky because there were only two kids in her class, so she really got a lot out of her swimming lessons this year. She can swim across a pool now on her back. She can also swim under the water along ways and has learned how to get another breath and keep going. She is really doing good!

We were also very proud of Rylee. Katie was so worried that she wouldn't get in the water without clinging onto her. But....she surprised us all, and was really excited about swimming lessons. This was our first year that we didn't have to get in the pool with the kids. We were happy to not get wet (and cold).

Cassandra's teacher recommended that she move from the Preschool three class to the level 2 class for bigger kids. She will be one of the shortest and smallest kids in her class, but she is ready to move on up!

Now, Mr. Jase was also promoted from Preschool 1 to Preschool 2. He is doing really good and is very comfortable putting his head under the water.

Ms. Summmer was Cassandra's teacher and she was so good with her. She did an excellent job.

Yea.....we love swimming!

The Peter's just put in a pool in their back yard, and now Rylee is going under the water and is very comfortable. She has really progressed along ways this summer and will only get better and better at swimming! Way to go Rylee!

My silly boy. You gotta love him! He is a hoot!!!!
