Let's Go Swimming Now

 

 

First dunk under water.  She didn't even cry!

Diving off the board and swimming to the edge by himself!!!

 

Mad that we made her try floaties

And she loves them!!!  Brat!

 

 

Mad because Daddy made her go under water.

But not mad for long.  She loved it too!!!

 

And by the end of the day he was diving with no floaties
and swimming to the side of the pool alone!

She peed at least 20 times outside today.

 

Alex was getting attitude with Uncle Thomas

He was carted off to the garage for some alone time.

Today was a beautiful day for a swim. We spent all afternoon in the pool.  It was great.  The kids got along well. After some extreme peer pressure and maybe a little force, we convinced Amelia to try floaties out.  She loved them.  Alex finally tried swimming without floaties and figured out he could do it.  It really is amazing how smart parents are!  I was trying out my new camera on the continuous shoot setting.  I had fun taking pictures of he boys jumping off the diving board and capturing every moment in still frames.  By the end of the day attitudes were flying high, and it was time to go home.  All 3 kids passed out in a matter of minutes on the drive home.  I love summer days like today!!
