Hello swim lessons! Today was Lexi's first ever swim lesson! I was fortunate enough to get the same teacher Samantha had last year and got a private lesson with just Sami and Lexi together. Today Sami worked on remembering what it feels like to be in a pool again, kicking on the kickboard, diving down underwater, and all out swimming. This year she will work on learning to swim and take a breath without stopping and standing up to take the breath. Lexi started out with sitting on a step and kicking (timid at first but really got the hang of it before the lesson was over! She is now an expert kicker. She also practiced blowing bubbles in the water, including with her nose under the water, and using her hands like ice cream scoops to scoop water behind her. I was amazed at how well she did, and she wasn't scared at all. I literally had to drag both girls to the car, they did NOT want to leave! Check out how much fun they are having in the pictures - the first two are how excited they are on their way there. The last one shows just how tired Lexi was afterwards! It was only a 30 minute lesson.
