Swimming Lessons!

We put Hallie in swimming lessons in hopes that she would learn to swim! Crazy concept but we really thought it would help. The only problem is that in order to learn to swim you actually have to get in the water. She had a hard time getting in the water and spent the first 25 minutes of the lesson (it's a half hour lesson) sitting on the side of the pool. But then she finally got the nerve up and decided to wanted to try the kicking thing. So she ventured over to the ladder and climbed in. The teacher was thrilled, he has 5 kids in the class and only one was in the water! He took her down the pool and back and that was enough for Hallie. But the good thing is she did get in the water and she did it all on her own. We have high hopes of next Saturday!!
