swim pics from Day 4

Thursday was Day 4 of swimming lessons. Dad got done work early so he got to go with us.

Matthew heading in all by himself before class








He talked Dakota into getting in early to play with him!





On Tues and Thurs is a male instructor, Dakota while Mon, Wed and Fri is Ms. Kelly. They are both excellent but they have 2 totally different teaching styles. You can totally see how differently males and females relate to little kids.

Time for class to start. 1st things 1st - must talk about the rules


I think this picture is hilarious because while I know they were sitting on the steps practicing their kicks it totally looks like the 3 guys are just sitting their watching the girls swim by in front of them!


climbing up and out of the pool using the ladder


this is the "pirate ship"! Dakota takes both boys our at once on the noodle and they love it!


blowing bubbles in the water

using the kick board to swim and also putting his face in the water and blowing bubbles at the same time


he did such a great job and even did it all by himself for a short distance!
