For the past four weeks, Elise and I have had swimming lessons every day at 4:40. We go Monday - Friday to a local hotel pool and Mr. Michael teaches her how to swim and float. We probably have two weeks left because Little Miss Kicks-a-Lot can't get her feet under control. The goal in the end is that if she were to fall in the lake or a pool she would be able to roll onto her back and float, and swim to the nearest steps or side or ladder. It's a process for sure. If you want more information on these swimming lessons you can check out this link.
We took a couple videos today. I'm going to recommend turning the volume down a little...because she pretty much cries the whole time. She's a big faker though. As soon as she gets picked up she's fine. This is what a pretty typical lesson looks like. We've been working on floating this week. And if you can't stand the crying baby in the pool - at least watch the last 20 seconds or so. Every single day as soon as she's done and on her towel she waves at Mr. Mike and says "buhbye". It's the cutest.
P.S. I promise this isn't baby torture. It could save her life!
Okay...the VERY cutest part is when she says buh-bye. Darling video.
ReplyDeletethat is so cute, and she's doing a good job!
ReplyDeleteIt was not as hard to watch this video as last year's! But, I'm glad she can save herself at your mom's. Such a cutie!
