Swimming, Swimming in a Swimming Pool

About a month and a half ago, Audrey started taking her first non-"mommy and me" swim lessons.  She LOVES it.  I mean LOOOOOOVES it.  She always has the biggest smile on her face and her mouth seems to never stop moving.  I'd love to know what she's talking about.  We had her in two mommy and me classes when we lived in Iowa.  First when she was only 11 months old and again around 15 months.  We don't have any pictures from her first classes, but here are some from her second.

She was so little then!  I no longer have to get in the water with her and it's actual survival skills, not just splashing around and singing.  This is her objectives list, it's no joke.
This is from her very first class and she's hard to see:
Watching her big sis:
Bill's parents were able to join us at a class:
By about her fourth class, Audrey was able to climb out all by herself! "Elbow, elbow, tummy, knee!"
We'll likely continue these classes until Summer when we'll pause for a few months and start using the outdoor pool.  We just bought our family pass!

About This Blog

Laura began this blog with the intention of someday chronicling our children's lives since our family is spread out from east coast to west. We wanted a way for family to get up-to-date news. Since we had no children at the time, it became a blog that followed our (her) foodie thoughts. Cooking, eating out and drinking wine are huge hobbies of ours so it only seemed fitting. Now that children are here we're going to attempt to meld the two together. You will notice "Foodies" and "Family" links at the top left of the page underneath the header photos. Use these links to focus in on the entries you want to read and bypass the others. We hope you enjoy.
