Summer Lessons



June is off and running and we are trying to keep a good pace.

Tuesday, Avery started swim lesson boot camp. She will have a 30 minute private lesson everyday for the next two weeks. After one week she has made great strides. She can swim about 5 feet and grab the edge of the pool. She is working on pulling herself out. She is doing well going underwater and working on floating. It is very exciting. Thirty minutes seems like a long time for Avery and she does constantly ask if she is done, but she is hanging in there and learning.





Friday, was the beginning of our 10 week ballet session. Avery was thrilled to get all dressed in her ballerina outfit today and even more excited as we entered the studio. She is taking a class with 3 of her closest friends which makes it even more fun. I was so impressed by the way they all listened and followed instruction. I also couldn't get enough of her big girl self in her adorable outfit.











And, my buddy Dylan. He just tags along and does it with a smile. I can't imagine what life is going to be like next summer when I will be trying to keep up with classes for two!

Sounds like swim boot camp is going great. I'm hoping we can get Hendley into one when we move. Won't you just feel soooo much better when they can swim?? Or at least float or something???

Dylan is such a laid back fellow. What a blessing.

Finally, those ballet pics are about as adorable as it gets!!!

I'm so impressed with Avery and her swimming ability!!! She's doing awesome. Dyaln is a doll and you couldn't find a happier baby. :-)
