Is it my turn yet?
I finally had enough of worrying about Anna Kate and the pool at the grandparents house. We enrolled the girls in aquababies for Elizabeth to make the jump into actual swimming. She is doing well and getting better day by day. Last week she actually floated for the first time on her own, real honest to goodness floating no one touching her, that's a big day for me.
Anna Kate is the real dare devil. She is ready to go in all the time. Kathy, our instructor is teaching the swim, float, swim method. Anna Kate will eventually learn that if she falls in the water to stay calm, get on her back and get air. When she feels ready, flip over swim a few strokes and flip back over for air eventually getting to the edge of the pool. I think it's amazing to see how against our human nature it is to float and rest. I hope they never have to use the skills but I know that it is a necessary precaution. The following is all Anna Kate, real kicks and swimming underwater.
We did have a bit of fun this weekend and grilled out with the neighbors and friends. Eventually the kdis all ended up in bathing suits, aside from Anna Kate in her diaper.
Love the princess crowns. Good summer time fun.
