Now that summer has officially ended, it's time to catch-up on all of our happenings! I'm starting with Blake & Addison's first set of swim lessons! While they weren't always the happiest of campers to attend the classes, they learned a great deal... mostly along the lines of safety, and for that we are grateful! Both kids now know how to grab the side of a pool and use it to get to safety, and they know how to flip over to their backs and float after being thrown into the pool! Can't say these were pleasant tasks to learn, but it's a great start! Oh, and they can both successfully go under water without swallowing too much of it... or inhaling it through their noses! Not to mention, we had a great time as a family every evening at these classes!
It will still be a LONG time before these guys are flying solo in the water, but we're glad we got a great start on a few of the safety skills that are more important than "swimming" anyways! :)
