The kids both took swim lessons at the New Haven Pool in July. Dane was in the Get Acquainted Class, and Ava was in Level 1. They both had fun swimming, but it was COLD!! That's a really strange thing to say in July, I know, but they even cancelled class one night because it was so cool.
All ready to go with beach towels and flip flops:
Ava did GREAT! She loves the water, and did everything her teachers asked her to do. She passed Level 1 with flying colors!
Dane, well, he was a different story. It took some convincing to get him in the water at all the first night. Once he worked up the courage to get into the baby pool, he decided the water was a lot of fun. After some getting used to, he would even jump into the pool holding onto my hands. However, he did not like it at all when I tried to help him float or "swim" around in the water. He kept screaming "Baby pool! Baby pool!"Here are some pics of Dane post-lesson. His were right before Ava's, and I don't have any of him in the water because I was in the water with him.
Little Miss Fish waiting in line for her turn on the water slide - it was her favorite part. She even went off the diving board into the deep end a few times later in the week. Can you tell all the kids are shivering? This was even one of the "warm" nights!
Splashdown!
Brrrrrr, look at those purple lips!
