1 Fish, 2 Fish, 3 Fish 4......

Here's 4 little fish that I adore!!!

 And they always have to have a goofy pose!!!

I've never been one to take my kids swimming a lot and I had a good reason........Rylie and Owen would cling to me, they were not comfortable in the water and Rylie was too scared to do swimming lessons. And it was not any fun with two kids latched on to me......until recently! Finally Rylie was willing to do swim lessons so I signed them up for private lessons at our local pool. They were scared at first but once they went, they had sooo much fun and they are so much more comfortable in the water now!!!

I'm super proud of them, Rylie even went off the diving board.....ONCE, she wouldn't do it again and I had to ask the lifeguards to quit pressuring her to go again because she was starting to not want to do swim lessons because of that.

 They lasted for 4 days, you can tell how hot it was by looking at Evan and Katelin....the 3rd and 4th day weren't too bad even though it rained the last day!

So after that we went swimming quite a few times and they had a blast everytime, we went to the aquatic center most the time but once I took the kids and picked up Haylie and Dylan and we went to their neighborhood pool. Of course I have pictures...............

I bought Rylie and Owen each a pair of goggles and they love going under water with them and Katelin got a princess pool ring, she kept saying "look at me" and she would jump from the pool step into the water!

The big kids were all over the place, I practically had to beg them to stand still so I could take a picture of them.

I couldn't even tell you how many times Katelin went down this slide.....she LOVED it!



My sweet Evan in the cutest little swimsuit EVER.....I tried so hard to get a pic with the hat on but he wasn't having it! Evan loved the water especially the little fountains at the shallow end!

 We are taking a mini vacay in a couple of weeks for my brother in laws wedding and I found a hotel with a really cool pool with a waterfall and slide so the kids are super excited, let's hope the weather holds out for us!
