Swimmin'

Ellie has always loved bath time, so I was really hoping that she would continue to love the water and enjoy the pool. Every Thursday morning, we go to swim class at the Y. She LOVES it. The teacher is wonderful and is very purposeful in using the time to teach swim skills while making everything a game. Ellie is the only girl amidst 7 other little guys which seems to be par for the course these days (many of her friends are boys). It is a very sweet time for Ellie and me to have together every week. I think I like it almost as much as she does!

Learning to blow bubbles - Ellie usually tries to lap at the water and drink it instead, but one of these days she'll get the hang of it.

Learning to "reach and pull" with her arms

After swim class is over, it's time to play at home!
