Raspberry Smiles

Noah and Harrison have been taking swim lessons since September.  The first lesson they both screamed for 30 minutes.  That day was most certainly one of the top 10 embarassing moments as a mom.  The next week it was all different.  No screaming, no fear.  Now we’ve got 2 new swimmers in the family. 

I couldn’t figure out how to take a decent photo through glass, and I didn’t think about video until Noah’s class.  I’ll have to take some video of Harry next week.  Oh how I enjoy my little fishes!

Noah can swim a couple of feet on his own.  He just beams in his new goggles, and is starting to learn to dive for objects at the bottom of the pool.  Noah has a good kick and stroke, and can float on his back all by himself.  He has more muscle than fat, so he has to bend his legs slightly when back floating to keep balanced!

Harrison enjoys the water, will jump in at any time.  He has great kick and is able to keep his legs together and not bend his knees.  He’s working on the back float.  He is not a fan of the slide.
