Ellie and Graham are both taking swimming lessons this summer - I managed to find lessons for them at the same time so we can all be in the pool together....we go on Monday and Wednesday nights from 6 -6:30....I've been getting lots of help from Wil and Jim to make this a little more manageable. Graham goes in the water on his own with his group, but Ellie still needs a parent in the pool with her, so Wil and I have been taking turns swimming with her.
It was Wil's turn on Wednesday so I was able to grab a few pictures. This is Ellie's first experience in the pool, and she's been giving it mixed reviews. She very much would prefer to do her own thing and gets a little loud about it. Other times she goes with the flow and even does a little kicking or puts her face in the water. She's just not sure of it all yet....
Graham's lessons are right next to Ellie's group in the pool, and the other night G even had the instructor (Daniel) all to himself. At the most I've seen 3 kids in his group, but G was the only one that showed up on Wednesday.
Daniel seems pretty awesome and Graham has been doing all kinds of fun stuff with him. Graham told me he already knew how to swim (with his floaties) so he didn't need lessons...hopefully he's learning a few things anyhow ;)
