Reed's Swim Lessons

The past two weeks were Reed's turn to take swimming lessons! (Although Paige ended up with us quite a few times too). I was more apprehensive with him because he has a fear of the water but he did great! Once he worked his way in he didn't want to get out! So proud of him for overcoming his fear.

Our buddies Samuel and Gage took the class too!



Paigey blew bubbles and did all the things she would NOT do during her own lessons! Guess we just had to leave her alone and let her go to it!



Quite proud of herself!



No fear here!

Paigey's Swim Lessons

For the past two weeks I have been doing swimming lessons with Paige. She LOVES the water and of course, has absolutely no fear of it! She will go up to a pool and just climb over the edge in the deep end! I figured I needed to start her young with lessons so when she inevitably ends up in a pool, she will know what to do! It feels good that she is at an age where we can start to reign in some of her fearlessness and hopefully teach her the proper way to do things!

















Doing the "crabwalk" along the edge



Of course she loved the climbing out of the pool part and was already an expert!






Big brother offering some words of encouragement






Paige jumps in the water into my arms!













I loved my Mommy time with my sweet girl and teaching her a life saving skill is just a bonus! Can't wait to start with Reed next week!
