Swim Lessons


There has been quite a lag time between this post and last. In that time, I started a new job and we found out that the baby is a girl. She needs her own post soon - I'll try to take a picture of my belly and post that (though be warned that it is rather hideously large for being only 5 months along)! The new job is fantastic! I'm not the least bit stressed at work and I work only on Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays. Betty and Peter have been the BIGGEST help by picking up the girls on the days I work. That has saved us logistically.

Last week the girls started swim lessons at Stoney Creek swim center. They took lessons at the Y last year, but I wasn't impressed , so I looked for a place that would push/encourage them a little bit more. So they go on Tuesday nights to this FANTASTIC place in Noblesville. Addy is in the red group, for kids who are not afraid of the water, but can't swim on their own. Lily is in the white group - she can "swim" on her own, but needs to hone her skills. I have them signed up through May and then plan to take them out for the summer. So far so good - and they love it! Aren't their little swim caps cute? They also wear goggles!
