Swim Lesson Wrap

Today is Makayla's last swim lesson for the summer with Miss. Brianna. She's made so much progress since her very 1st lesson but we realize that she's real young. She's very comfortable in the pool and loves to play in the water. She can now blow bubbles under water and is okay with it getting her head all the way under water. She also kicks her feet pretty well too. So maybe next year we'll make even bigger progress. We're very proud of her and Miss. Brianna was fantastic with her!

After every swim lesson Ry pretty much stayed with her in the pool for a little longer to play and practice some more. She started hanging out all on her own in her little fishy inter tube and kick her feet to swim all around. She'd even jump in it too. I wish I was able to capture that on video but she's too quick! Here is a little clip of her Daddy throwing her way up high! Check out her form! It's scores a perfect 10 for form & height!

Mylee was pretty much out at every swim lesson that Makayla had.  Here's one of our favorite pictures while in her stroller waiting for her big sis.  One of her biggest smiles and out loud laughs!  So cute!
