Swimming

Atticus has been getting some prime Daddy-time for several weeks. He has been going to swim lessons on Saturday and they are a BIG hit. He had his last class of this session and so Mommy and Milayla came to watch and take pictures. Boy, has he improved A LOT!

Mommy and her photographer's assistant went a little snap-happy with the camera to try to catch all the smiles and laughter that were going on with all that swimming. 

About to get started...

And JUMP!

Favorite picture of the day

Atticus practiced his frog kick while sitting on the side of the pool before giving it a whirl.

In between laps, the boys goofed off by blowing bubbles in the water.

Then it was time to practice jumping in the pool; something that Atticus certainly did not seem to need practice doing as he was pro!

Then the slide was pulled out before it was time to sing a goodbye song and climb out of the water. Atticus opted to watch - perhaps next time?

Then Atticus pushed his noodle out the side of the pool (with Daddy's help) and climbed out of the pool all by himself.

It was chilly outside of that water, but Atticus still wanted to give Mommy and Milayla a hug before getting showered and dressed.

We are so impressed with the progress that Atticus has made in his swimming ability and confidence in the water. He has learned so many new water skills and he is loving it which means so are we!

We can't wait for the next installment of swim lessons in a couple weeks.
