Little fish

We finished our first week of swimming lessons at the Henry Moses Aquatic Center in Renton. After staying up until midnight to register the girls (I heard they are popular and fill up quickly), I am so glad they are worth it! We go at 11-11:30 each day, and all three girls are in different classes. I am very impressed by their organization and instruction, and the kids are loving it. It is an outside pool, but the water is so warm that even on the chilly days it doesn't bother us. And I do mean "us" because I am lucky enough to get into my swimsuit each day and be with Addison. Here are some highlights from our first week, thanks to Becky for coming one day and snapping a bunch of pictures.

Symantha and cousin Brayden (they are in the same class)

 One of the downfalls of all being in lessons at the same time is that I am not there to see that Symantha OBVIOUSLY needs her ponytail put back in.

Addison

It is so nice that Addison gets to do it instead of being sad about watching the other girls. We do all sorts of fun songs and games in the water and she is getting way better at going under water and doing "reach and pull".

The other bonus to having swimming lessons here is that one half-hour after swimming lessons is over, the public session opens for the whole water park. We stayed on Monday with Kurt, Steph and all the kids (along with their significant others).

Aren't they cute?

And they are cute, too:)

Week two of swimming lessons starts today.  Looking forward to it!
