How lucky were we to score swimming lessons over the hottest weeks of the summer? Wowza.
Piper tried lessons this summer for the first time too! Hadley was the youngest kiddo in the class (besides Pipey), so Piper was definitely a little on the inexperienced side compared to the other children. But, she became proficient in the art of climbing in & out of the pool all by herself, happily did the kickboard with the teacher any chance she got, and 'tried' a backfloat on the last morning even though she had politely told the teacher, "No thank you," when it was her turn (hehe).
Hadley happily jumped in all by herself to join in the games, 'attempted' to put her face in the water, really thought she was swimming every time she paddled and kicked without touching the bottom, and even jumped into the deep end (with help)!
Piper playing 'red light-green light' with her eyes closed (to avoid the splashing), and that is her attempt at a backfloat below!
Swimming buddies.
Oh my goodness - they are so cute, and brave! Piper looks like she's as tall as Hadley:) What a fun week for swimming lessons.
