The boys have been taking swimming lessons for the past two weeks. I think they really enjoyed it, aside from the "dunking"! Everytime we would walk in the door, Rhett would get so excited and just start squealing! We would always start the class in the splash pool and then move into the deeper part.

Rhett in the splash pool, I think this was his favorite part because he could walk around all by himself! 
The bubble fountain in the splash pool, Rhett liked this much more than Grant

He loved these fountains and trying to climb up on the step
Now we are doing some serious swimming! Their teacher, Kristen, is holding Grant
Grant is practicing his kicking, he actually did a good job with this. Each time we had to dunk him under water, he would start kicking as he was coming back up! Which was obviously a goal we were working towards.
Rhett doing a little flirting, he enjoyed smiling and laughing at Kristen much more than he did kicking his legs!
We went outside to play on the slides and both boys went down the slide all by themselves! Sadly we didn't get pictures of this because I was at the top of the slide and Aaron was at the bottom to catch them! Overall, I think the entire family had a great time during the swimming lessons. It's so neat to be able to do "real" things with the boys now!
The boys look like they are having fun,I hope they are swimming soon. Grandad
ReplyDeleteI have been feeling like the worst mom for not starting swimming lessons! Now I really think I am the only one! Where is this, it looks awesome! So glad the boys/whole family enjoyed it - it really is great to be able to do these kinds of things with them now!
