Swimming Lessons! (Week 33)

"Who me? What was that you said? You like my little pink heart bathing suit? Why thank you...you are too kind."


"Hi daddy! Look at me!"



Lily chases the ball. With her mouth. Awesome!



Playing fishy in the middle with the other kids. One little boy tried to pull off her bathing suit. Lily just looked at him...and let him. Oh boy, are we in trouble!



Splashing with her hands...



Kicking with her feet...

Lily lets us know exactly what she thinks of wearing a PFD. She can be very subtle at times.


She decided she would indulge us and tolerate it for the moment.


"Mommy, you are not fooling me into thinking this is fun so you may as well stop making funny faces at me."

Daddy and Lily go under the "bridge."


"Hi mommy! Look at us!!"


Lily misses the concept of blowing bubbles, but she figures out how to put her mouth in the water.


When mommy isn't looking she tastes and swallows the water.

"Ok, that wasn't too bad..."


"I think I'll try it again!"


"It didn't taste as good that time!"


Lily after being submerged briefly (like for half a second). The swimming instructor showed us how to blow up the baby's nose so they have a startle reflex and hold their breath, and then you pull them under the surface of the water towards you as fast as possible for the briefest of moments.


"What the heck did you do THAT for???? Mommy I am NOT pleased. I was having a perfectly good time splashing around. Man, I thought that PFD thing was as bad as it could be. I was wrong."


Lily is soon distracted by a waterfall, and forget all about the underwater *trauma.*



"I like riding my water horsie with mommy."


"And I like this flutter board too!"


"But I especially like eating boats."



"It's even more fun when daddy helps!"



"Look at us, mommy!"


Well, there had to be at least one super silly Lily picture.


And also a super not-silly one :)



A very pleased little Lily. "I think daddy should come to all my swimming lessons."
