Swimming Lessons

We started our 8 week long Saturday swimming lessons this weekend.  The kids did great!  We arrived early and allowed Mallory and Emerson to play in the very shallow area of the pool before our instructor arrived.  Neither one of them hesitated or fussed when we set them down in the water.  The point of the lessons is to teach Craig and I swimming skills to then teach the kids.  Emerson took especially well to the new skills of kicking and reaching as he motored his way around the pool with Daddy.  Mallory enjoyed splashing (even when she got water in her face) and being thrown up out of the water to "pop goes the weasel".

Craig and I were unsure what to expect, but it ended up being a fun morning for us too.  We are looking forward to the next 7 lessons.




In the dressing room before the lesson....can you sense Emerson's anticipation?
