Lap swimming

After dinner the whole family headed to the pool. So I decided to tackle my lap swimming while they were playing around. I worked on my form for about 20 minutes and then I played with the family.

On a family note...the kiddos are doing great with swimming. I can't believe how quickly they are picking it up! Natalie has been a fish since she was born but Weston is a lot like me and has been a little afraid of the water. Here is a video that David took of the kids swimming two weekends ago.
It is soo much fun to take them to the pool and watch them swim! They love to see how far they can swim. It's become a big game to see who can swim the farthest. Tonight, Weston, even tried to swim a couple of laps with me. He stayed very close to the wall and would take a break when he needed to but all in all he is did a great job! 

Of course there is a lot of goofing off at the pool. David held Natalie's kicking board tonight and let her pretend it was a surf board. That made for a nervous Mommy. Weston likes to sit on the bottom of the pool and see how long he can stay down. And of course there are many many cannonballs!
