Practicing floating on her back.

Lindsay loves her new instuctor Sawyer.

Lindsay says this is called the monkey walk.

Brookie can float on her back very well!

Almost done...

Brooke went underwater and here she comes up with those eyes closed.

Lindsay knocking over the floaties as asked by her teacher.

WOW! Lindsay jumps into the pool to Sawyer (she wouldn't do that for Daddy 3 weeks ago).

Brooke gets to do the same exercise that Lindsay did.

All done!!

Lindsay and her classmate get to float together.

Sawyer was cool to let them have fun on the float.

He floated them over to the side of the pool to let them off at the end of the lesson.

Overall, we are much happier with the lessons the girls are getting from Aqua Tots this season.

Lindsay is much more confident this year!! And of course Brooke has no fear, and she is doing great! We are very proud of their swimming skills so far this summer.

Swim Lessons for Lindsay

Today we went and signed Linday up for swim lessons at Aqua-tots and her first lesson is this Saturday. So we immediately went to Wally world and got her some plastic pants (required even though she is most totally potty trained), some goggles for 3.00$ versus the 15 bucks the swim school charges; although daddy does not want Lindsay to have to use the goggles. She only wants them because she sees the other kids have them. Brooke was totally ready to swim while we were there today. She took her socks and shoes off when we weren't looking and said "Brooke swim, Brooke swim" and had a mini melt down when Dad tried to put her socks and shoes back on her. Lindsay has been wearing her goggles all over the house since we got home, as you can see from the fog! We would really like to get Brooke lessons too. But maybe next year. It is just too expensive for both right girls right now.
