Katharine's swim lesson

Katharine and Lukas are taking swim lessons this week and next week. I finally took some pictures today. Katharine is the only girl in a class full of boys and she kicks you know what! Yesterday she out dove all the boys by 3 kids' body lengths and today she out floated them on her back. You go girl! There is almost an hour between the two classes, so I pack dinner for all of us and we picnic outdoors everyday. It is a good thing that it is pretty mild and pleasant this week, otherwise we could not do that. Today we went to a park that is just about a minute away from the pool and the kids got to watch ducks. There are no pictures of Lukas in the pool yet. Erik usually takes him to his class after dinner and I take the rest of the gang home for a bath and down time. From what Erik has told me, Lukas pretty much screamed the whole time because he did not want to put his head under water. He is way more timid than Katharine. The funny thing is that he is always super proud when he comes home from swim class. Maybe I can get Erik to take some pictures of Lukas 
tomorrow.


Lukas does have a VERY good time splashing in the puddles at the pool.

Katharine crawling without help. She needs to remember the angle and to keep her fingers together.

A typical Lennon look.


This is where she out floated the boys in her class.

Watching Katharine and paying attention to what her teachers said. He does know what they are talking about when they tell the kids to make Super Man arms.


Back crawl.

Katharine had a little diving contest going on with one of the boys in her class. Guess who won?


Picnic in the park.
We had cheese and crackers, baby carrots, meatballs, watermelon, homemade yogurt with cereal, pink lemonade and for dessert chocolate oatmeal cookie.

Katharine loved the yogurt and cereal best.



Watching the ducks.
