Swimming Lessons

Bries first class of swimming lessons ended yesterday and so for the last day we were allowed to go in and take pictures finally! Her class had four kids in it and she made friends with one little boy, Quin. She seems to love her lessons and asks every day if its swimming day so we signed her up for the next level, she is now a Pollywog 2! Some of the things they practiced in this class was jumping off the side and going under water, kicking on their front and backs, going under water and getting toys off the bottom of the pool, and floating on their backs. She also really liked her teacher, even though she never learned her name lol. She drew her a picture and gave it to her at the end of the class and it said "To Swimming Teacher From Brie" Im glad she had so much fun and wants to continue on.
