Swim Lessons


Learning the pool rules

Kicking while floating

Blowing bubbles


Kicking on the bar

Playing after swim lessons

For the past two weeks (4 days a week) Ella has been taking swim lessons at one of the local pools. It has been really fun watching her grow and learn and just have fun. After each swim lesson the aquatic area had a pool for kids that wasn't very deep. It had slides and fun water spraying stuff to run wild in. We would pack a picnic lunch everyday, play for half an hour after the swim lesson and then eat our lunch. Lizette and I would just hang out in the water while Ella ran wild with the other kids. I must say one of the best things was after each day of fun Ella ate her lunch without a fight. Isn't that sad that such a simple thing made the day so great! Anyway, it was a great two weeks!

Yes!! She isn't picky really she just chooses not to eat most meals. I'm always worried that she doesn't eat enough so it was nice to have her so hungry after swimming everyday before lunch!

Aw, this reminds me of Rivers taking swim lessons at the YMCA. And Ella is sooooo cute...she still reminds me so much of Emmaline. So much.
