Swimming Lessons

Jacob and Kaylee completed two weeks of swimming lessons on Thursday. They both improved tremendously during those 8 lessons. Jacob wouldn't put his face in before lessons. Now, he goes under & sits on the bottom of the pool. He also puts his face in a little to swim the front crawl. Kaylee was a little more comfortable in the water than Jacob, but still a little nervous. Now, you can't keep her above water. And she swims the crawl back and forth and back and forth and back and forth.
One day in swimming lessons they wore life jackets to learn about safety, and then those that wanted to could jump off the spring board. The last day of swimming lessons whoever wanted could jump off the spring board onto a noodle that their instructor was holding. Here's Kaylee ready to jump. She LOVED it!
