...In My Swimmin Hole

We finally decided to bite the bullet and put Lexer in some much needed swim lessons. For a little girl who is terrified to get her face wet in the shower, it's time to pull out the big guns. That's right, the YMCA to the rescue.



Her pal Cricket was in her class too...with no one else. Pretty much our own private swim instructor. Oh, don't you all have that?








































Drum roll please.....Lexi put her face in the water!! Pretty sweet. Now, next we just need to work on not breathing WHILE her face is in the water. Baby steps.

Hooray!! May the force be with her. :)

PS- Oh, we have our own private swim instructor too. And Doug actually put his face in the water yesterday. Sooo... top that.

Bummer. I thought Lexi would actually wait until Doug's age to put her face in. I guess she's just better than him.

Ha I am laughing because I just took the kids swimming the other day and Luke is pretty happy dancing around and NOT getting his face wet. I told him to go swim with Kennedy and he said, "not today". Sigh...he was so good this summer and now we are toast.

We so need that- Gibson associates pools with drowning.
Where do we sign up? HAmilton?
