Swimming!

Catalina

We went swimming tonight.  We often do on Monday nights.  Although it has almost been 3 weeks since we last swam...  And by we I really mean the kids.  I haven't been swimming this whole summer.  I never got in before Myra was born, and since then... well I just had a baby, enough said!

But the kids have had a lot of fun swimming over the summer.  It is fun to see how much they have grown in their swimming.  Not really the oldest three, but more Savannah and Catalina.  They both have changed so much this summer in their swimming abilities.  Savannah can swim!  Not well enough to go anywhere with out an adult, but she will push off the wall and swim out several feet.  This fro, last summer where she didn't want to let go of the closest adult.

Myra's First time swimming!

Catalina is not as far a long as Savannah, but she will jump into you, and kick, and if you can convince her it is OK to get her hair wet she will go under the water (Cat REALLY hates getting her hair wet, we have several funny stories of Cat being grumpy because her "hair" got wet).

And cousin Jaxon just chilling!

But tonight was Myra's first time swimming!  She was not the biggest fan (the water was not the warmest... or cleanest but that is a different story).  But she never got real mad.  She mostly just complained about it :)  It was also my first (and most likely last) time in this summer.  It made me think that Thermopolas this fall would be nice (the water was really cold).

It was a great evening though, and a great way to end the summer swim season!
