Swimming Lessons

The weather has started to warm up a little bit.  The snow has given way to rain (and an oft flooded backyard) and the kids are playing outside more.  I decided to sign the kids up for swim lessons at a local pool.  I would like them all to improve in their swimming and they were all excited to have lessons.  And luckily, since its getting warmer, the kids don't completely freeze while going in and out of the facility in swim clothes.  So that's a plus.  Here we are waiting for lessons to begin.  

This pool is a large wave pool that's normally outdoors but they cover it with a big bubble in the winter.  And it is nice and warm in there.

Emma is in a beginner preschool class.
She's loving it!

Emma's preschool class is only 30 minutes and the older kids have a 45 minute lesson each day.  So she gets to sit with me for a few minutes after she gets done.

All the kids think they need goggles and nose plugs.  

Anna got a new swim suit.  Last years is already too small.

I'm hoping we can make some progress on our swimming skills this spring.
