Swim Lessons

 Swim lessons this year have been great!  Dalton is in level 1 now which is in the big pool instead of the toddler one.  It is a big change b/c the toddler pool is warm like a bath and the kids can touch everywhere.  The big pool is cold and they can't touch so they have to hold on to the side of the pool the whole time.

Dalton has done great and loves going to swim lessons every week.  We are so happy for him.  He dives for rings and goggles at the bottom of the pool, and is swimming with his head under the water with a little help from the teacher.  He has been so fun to watch learn and do more and more with each lesson.

Ashby has done great in swim lessons too and just loves it.  She has always been our little fish and loves to be in the water.  She has really improved on her swim strokes and back floats.  Her favorite thing to do still is jump off the diving board.  She is such a brave little thing.


It has been so fun to watch both the kids really do well in swim lessons this year.  They will be so sad when they are over.  Ashby and Dalton really look forward to having lessons 2 times a week.  I will just have to make sure I take everyone to our pool a lot this Summer so they don't lose all they have gained!
