Swim Lessons

We started swim lessons this week. Allyson's taking them at Oakmont High School in Roseville - the same place her Daddy took swim lessons almost 30 years ago. Cute, huh?

Day One I got in the pool with Allyson. Here she is in her cute Paul Frank swimsuit ready to get in the pool.


And then me holding her out of the pool for a picture. Steve decided not to get up and come over for the pic - so pardon the blurriness from the digital zoom.


She was happier than she looks on her first day. We were supposed to learn to blow bubbles in the water but Allyson is more interested in looking at the other kids and saying "Bub-boooles" when I blow them. We'll get there I guess.

Day Two was Steve's turn. This is them doing the bunny hop to get wet and used to the water.

Trying to get Ally to blow bubbles again. Steve was not successful either.


Here's where Chickie really got into it. Ask this little girl to kick her feet and she goes crazy!


What's this look? Very pensive. Like she's thinking "I'm SO over This is the way we kick our feet."

And then there's the thing that every kid loves - splashing.


We've got one more week of Guppy swim lessons. In July we'll go back and maybe move on to Turtle. Depends on whether she passes the Guppy requirements. Regardless we're just going to have fun with her and do it as a family.
