Hailey's Swimm Class

Over the past five weeks Hailey and I decided to take a toddler swim class with her Aunt Lisa and cousin Ben. Hailey had such a great time going two days a week, and it was a blast for me to get to spend that alone time with her. It was so amazing to watch how much her swimming abilities grew in that short time. She and Ben were never afraid of the water, and often wanted to jump in without their mommies several times. It did however take some coaxing to get Hailey to perform tasks such as putting her face under water, and wearing a life jacket. Today on her last day of class, Hailey was extra cooperative, and showing off for her Grandma who was watching from the bleachers. She made Hailey and Ben feel very special...we love her for all she does for us (thanks Mom).

What, cousins showering together? They loved their warm showers each day after class.

This has nothing to do with this post of coarse, but how stinking sweet is this picture? I love it!

These pictures take me back to when I was little and had swim lessons. That is great that you and Lisa did the lessons together! I think Hailey looks so cute in that swimsuit and pigtails! Travis looks adorable as a bunny!

You didn't sound this excited about the class when you were actually in the water early in the morning! :) It was fun, though, and I'm glad we did it together. I'm glad you brought your camera and got some cute pictures.
