Little Swimmer

Last Sunday (July 8th), Kresee learned how to swim....This girl was still not even putting her head in the water...She wouldn't go under...She wouldn't jump off the side...She barely stuck her mouth in the water to blow bubbles...But Sunday we were at Maw and Papa's house...Shellie got in the pool with the girls while I changed....By the time I got out there, Shellie had her putting her whole head in the water...She did this over and over and over...Dunking herself and she thought it was great...Before long, she was kind of swimming across the steps from side to side where she could still touch...I got her to get her bottom up and she floated really well when she took a big breath...Within an 1 1/2, this girl was swimming off the steps out to Shellie or I...Over and over again...She can sure hold her breath...Before long, she could go the length and Shellie would just touch her belly long enough for her to come up for air and then back under she would go...I was just so shocked and surprised!!!

Wednesday we went over to our friends house and she did more great swimming...She is loving it and doing an amazing job...She can now jump off the side and get up to the top without my help...I'm there to hold her when she comes up for a breath...Great job Kresee!!
The boys playing Star Wars that day...They had a great day sword fighting with the water guns and noodles...
