Swimming Lessons






Swimming lessons is over. We had to make quite a drive because the Boulder pool was closed for June and July this summer,(weird timing). Anyways it turned out to be a REALLY good thing!! The weather in June was perfect (record-breaking lows) and the boys REALLY progressed. The pool was really nice and in July when it was ridiculously hot Briggy and I were able to go into the baby pool to cool off. Marshall made it to level 2 and turned into a little fish, until we stayed one day. He went down the BIG adult water slides which he was technically too short to go down. He went down about 4 times, each time with the life guard there waiting to catch him (I was not allowed beyond a certain point) Well about the fifth time he came down Kason REALLY had to go potty so I wasn't there to let the lifeguard know he was coming. Arghh! Kason and I got back in the pool right after he came down the slide but it wasn't enough time to be there when he came out. Marshall struggled a little bit and was really scared. Unfortunately he won't go down those slides again. He also will only swim in the shallow end. Back to square one!! Well, I signed them up for private lessons in August after the baby is born. We'll see what happens!! Either way, they really did improve a ton, and the drive was worth it!!

Too cool that the boys took swimming lessons, that would have been a blast to see.
