(Day of the Week) = Swim Day

Our pool is open Tuesday through Sunday so we've been going Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday...you get the idea! I have to admit with our temps hanging in the 100s every day, visits to the pool are nice.

Joshua and Daniella are pretty much super swimmers now. Last week Joshua was swimming with his life vest or arm floats and now he is diving at the 9ft section of the pool and swimming along the bottom just for fun. I'm trying to let them both gain strength and confidence in their swimming but I am in a constant state of alert and keep going over my CPR and First Aid training. You know, just in case. Riley has always been scared of the water and her idea of swimming involved clinging for dear life to my or Jason's neck. Now she is perfectly comfortable in the water and with her new floral arm floats she swims around happily! One big treat for the kids is seeing their classmates regularly and they've even made some new friends. They love it!

Right now everyone's tan, freckled, and recovering from water log. Riley has a cough right now so I think this is a great opportunity to take a break from the pool!



The pool has several sections.  Its almost a small water park!  The lap pool has some water slides and it is fast!

We'll probably be here a lot over the next few weeks.  I've already gone through two cans of sunscreen.  Gonna need a lot more at this rate!
