Swimming lessons

Carter just finished swimming lessons for the spring. He was so excited to go to swimming lessons because his cousin, Addie, and buddy, Eli, were going to be in class with him.

Thumbs up! Carter and Eli were constantly looking up to us in the bleachers and giving us thumbs up after they completed each task.


Carter was a little apprehensive about putting his whole face in the water. He usually got up to his nose, then bailed. The last two days of swimming lessons he finally did a bob and went all the way under!


Working on his backfloat and kicks....


Getting ready to jump off the edge of the pool. This was the first day, after this they went off the diving board instead. I think the diving board was carter's favorite part! Unfortunately, I guess I haven't taken those pictures off my camera yet.


Chase was a little upset that he didn't get to go in the pool too. But after his initial diappointment, he had fun watching Carter. Maybe next year he'll get to go in too. He wanted me to take his picture with, "two thumbs up", while we were waiting for Carter to get dressed. So here is a little of Chase's personality coming through...
