Learning to Dive!!!
Nathan and Ashley LOVE swimming. They have both come a long way this summer. Especially Nathan! He was so scared of the water, and really uncomfortable in it! But now he's floating and able to dunk his head under the water!
More diving for Daniel. I'll need to get a video of this because he basically tries to walk out onto the water with his arms pointed! It's pretty funny!
Goggles!
The back-stroke. Im thinking I might get Daniel on the swim team. He's really good at it!
I love this teacher! She is firm and patient with Nathan. He hasn't been more comfortable with anyone than he has been with her!
Daniel is still dropping jaws with his muscles! There is a 'viewing' room upstairs for all the parents to watch their kids swim. Daniel is not only a good swimmer, but very "buff". I've overheard several other parents say, "Holy smokes! Look at that kids muscles!" or "Wow! You can tell that kid is totally ripped!" Yes....yes, that is my son.
I have to tease Daniel now and again! He's a really good swimmer in the pool, but anywhere else? He doggie paddles! :) I don't think anyone really cares to see Daniel swimming, but I just wanted to put it out there so Bryan could feel apart of it.
After their lessons are over, the younger kids get to go into this tiny pool and play for a few minutes! It's a lot of fun for the kids! Im so happy with the progress that Nathan and Ashley have been able to make this summer! They really have come a long way. From digging their nails into your neck and screaming, to being able to not only dunk themselves, but hold their breath under water!
