One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish

The kids just finished their swim lessons and we had a great time.  Maizie advanced to level 4 and is quite the little fish, Madilyn finished up as a sea lion, Cooper as an otter, Lillie as a tadpole, and Rylie in parent-tot.  Lillie screamed a bit at first, but then got comfortable and would be beaming with excitement after each class letting us know what new thing she learned that day.  Rylie thinks she can swim on her own and pushes away during class, which isn't surprising since she goes down the slide at her Grandma and Grandpa's house by herself.  Cooper learned to go down under water and grab things, while Madilyn started swimming without help and loves the backstroke.  Maizie just loves to be in the water and likes to take on whatever new challenge is next.  They were all so excited to jump off the diving board the last day, and they have all been practicing the things they learned in the pool since.  (Since we have no pics from swim lessons because I was with Rylie in the pool, here are some recent pics from swimming at home).
