The last two weeks of June meant Swimming Lessons for our two fish. This was our 2nd year with Ms. Leslie and Ms. Cindy over in Indian Trail. It actually rained for many of the days, but that didn't stop them from being in the warm, salt-water pool.
Joshy singing "The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish..." during warm-ups.
And bubbles! Josh was pretty adamant this year about not getting his face wet. He was bribed with candy a couple of times, but he wasn't so sure about being brave...
But silly he has down. So cute. I could eat him up.
Gracie flourished this year! She was comfortable floating, and was even taught how to flip from a front float to a back float.
She loved being underwater. She even went to the deep end and used a pole to descend into the water hand-over-hand. (Right before the thunder got us out of the pool!)
She loved the "Torpedo" and kept practicing even when her teachers were working with other kids.
Racing to the deep end to jump in...
Thinking about jumping in...
...thinking some more...
...and she did it! :)
And then she swam to the edge!
Could this be the kid that kept saying, "I wish I didn't have swimming lessons," and..."I don't want to put my face in." It's so hard to be THREE. :) I remember Gracie was unsure the year she was three...
