Swimming lessons again

I have very few options in this small town that I live in and things for the girls to do are also limited. They do offer swimming lessons so we will be taking them throughout the summer. Natalie is doing well blowing bubbles out her nose and going under water.

Her class has changed over the first few days of lessons. The first day there was 5 kids. There were two girls that needed to be in the class above, two boys that weren't ready for this class and Natalie was in the middle. On that day I was a little worried that Natalie would get lost in the mix but the 2nd day the two girls had moved to the next class and one of the boys was moved down a level. So now Natalie's class is only 2 kids. Then the next day the other boy was gone so we have totally lucked out and Natalie now has private lessons...and I don't have to pay for it.

Katelyn is loving the lessons. This is the first time she has done a classroom type activity with a bunch of kids her age. She has done really good listen to the teachers and even gets ready in the morning without a hassle. One day after her swim lesson she wanted to point out her teachers to me and she has one boy teacher and one girl teacher. She pointed to the girl and said "that is the mommy teacher" and pointed to the boy and and "that is the daddy teacher. HAHA love the way kids think!!

Both of my girls have the back float down pat and are really enjoying the lessons. They were both very excited to show Paul how well they were doing and it worked out that he made it home one morning to watch them. Paul and I were both very surprised how well Katelyn takes instructions but then again they aren't her parents so of course she is going to listen better. Now that Natalie has private lessons it is amazing how fast she is learning.
