Swimming Lessons!

Kade and Brady both took swimming lessons with Miss Kari this summer. Kade is definitely our little water bug. He loves the pool. He did so well during his lessons. He learned how to tread water, sort of got the diving thing down, started turning his head to the side when he came up for a breath, and figured out how to go down to the bottom of the pool to get toys without someone having to give him a helping push. He did great.

Now, we have a whole different story to tell about Mr. Brady. Out of two weeks of swimming lessons, we had one good day where he attempted to do what Kari wanted him to. He would kick his feet, but absolutely refused to use his arms because he was convinced that he would go under water if he used his arms. His mind was set and there was no bribing it either. After the first week, we pretty much gave up and decided it would be better just to wait and try again next year. Thank you Kari for swimming lessons. We had a blast.
