Swim Lessons

Ben and Mollie both began swim lessons today.  Mollie's lessons are at 8:30 a.m. and Ben's are at 10:30 a.m.  Parents and siblings aren't allowed to stay, so we had to find ways to pass the time.  Ben and I went to Krispy Kreme (we didn't tell Mollie), the three of us checked out the animals at PetSmart, and Mollie and I happened to run into some friends playing in the gym at church.

 I snapped this quick pic after Mollie's swim lessons.  She was very happy when we picked her up and her teacher said she did great.  She didn't get sad at all when we left her at the pool.

Ben was very excited about swim lessons.  This pic is before his lesson waiting for the other kids to arrive.  When we picked him up he said that he had been jumping off the diving board and swimming to the side.  This is a huge improvement over swim lessons two years ago.  We have a video of him on the last day of swim lessons on the end of the diving board with his legs completely stiff refusing to jump. Eventually one of the swim teachers thew him into the pool to the other teacher.
