Luckily we started swim lessons this week and unlucky for the parents who chose to start them in June...yuck! Our summer has FINALLY arrived and it's just been so perfect for us. I would be crying every day if I didn't get these precious times with Lilah and had to work instead. Yesterday we had our first day of swim lessons. It was not much of anything (some singing and playing with water toys, and different holds for your baby in the water), but was just fun to get to be at the pool and hang out in the water. Since there were lessons in the entire pool, it wasn't so crazy like I'm sure a "free swim" would be. Lilah entertained the teacher and was usually the baby demonstrator. It was fun and Lilah enjoyed being in the water. When she got cold, we got out, got her all bundled up and sat and watched the other kids and she ate snacks. After Lilah's nap, we went to Liz and Clara's condo pool and met Jen, Leah and Noelle there for an afternoon swim. Such a difference from our lives last year at this time. Now just to get into the pool is an event (swimsuits, sunscreen, hat, toys, snacks). The cleanup was hilarious - snacks of all kind all over the place and 3 soggy swim diapers. I bet the young girls that were hanging out at the pool hated it when the 7 of us showed up! :) It was a wonderful day to start our summer of fun pool times. After Lilah naps this afternoon I'm hoping to put out and fill up her ghetto plastic pool for some front yard pool fun. More pictures to come!
