Tiger swimming lessons lasted 2 weeks at Auburn Aquatics Center. We had two wonderful instructors and our friend, Kylie Anne, and her mama joined us for lessons. At first, Sophie was not a fan of the lessons or the cold water. Bless her heart, she would be blue after the 30 minutes of lessons. I think her favorite part was seeing her Papaw everyday and him toting her around to show her off. ;)
It took her two days to warm up to the swimming lessons and after those two days, she tolerated them. Thanks to Grandmama for taking her the two days I had workshop! I wouldn't say she absolutely loved them but she did start enjoying them more and more. She does pretty good kicking her legs in the water and going underwater. I will say she enjoys the pool when its out in the sun and she doesn't turn blue, ha. She's a trooper and I'm so proud of her! I had the best time swimming with her just about everyday and they wore me out as much as they did her!
During swimming lessons, she got use to the water, lying on her back, floating on her stomach, going under, and catching balls to help with her swimming skills in the water. She wasn't a big fan of getting the balls. I think it may have been that once she spent all that time getting one, she couldn't keep it and had to put it in the bag. I'm so proud of my sweet girl! She really did a fabulous job! I love her calmness and bravery to try new things with mama!
Southern Love,
