Swimming Lessons - Daddy Style

Before leaving for the week, Dave took Mon. morning off and headed into swimming lessons with the girls. This was a huge blessing to me as I was then able to concentrate on watching both girls rather than being consumed with Paloma and her lesson (since she is still in parent/toddler class). Plus, I think Paloma secretly liked having her daddy there instead of mommy.











Paloma is doing fabulous and even gets to be bumped up to the "Pike" class next session. I'm a bit worried as the minimum age requirement is 3 and she is only a mere 2.5. But, I really want her to start learning some skills and she is just not doing that in the parent/toddler class.
Mattea is also doing really well. She has had to repeat her "Super Pike" class several times because she just can't float well on her own. But she has made some amazing strides this session and so we are hoping she gets to graduate. We'll keep you posted....

Way to go, girls!! We had Bennett at the pool for the first time yesterday and he seems to really enjoy the water, too! That certainly didn't come from me :-)
