Swimming

We went swimming today in the 93 degree heat at Life Time and had a blast. Swimming has been so fun this summer.  The boys are so confident and can touch easily and spend most of their time going down the water slides.  Their swimming lessons went so well this year and they were very proud of themselves.

Today Hattie was wear her life jacket.  She was holding on to the edge and I saw her let go with her fingers and float, then grab on again.  She was trying it out! It was adorable to watch and she was so proud that she let go.  I thought I could take her out into the deeper water and do the same.  She wasn't so happy about this and screamed a very scared scream and cried.  I didn't do that again.  She did get "brave" per her words and allow me to stand just out of reach with my arm out as she floated and kicked from one side of the pool to another part and she thought she was tough stuff.

I watched Chase and Owen make a friend and have so much fun doing karate kicks off the side and cannon balls and some amazing belly flops!
