One-on-One Lessons

Tonight, Reagan and Cooper started one-on-one swimming lessons.  The director decided that they needed to be split up in order for both of them to learn to swim faster...so, they each have their own teacher.  How cool is that?

Cooper doing the freestyle stroke

Reagan LOVES her teacher

she even swam the backstroke by herself for a few strokes (before realizing her teacher had let go of her!)

Cooper practiced the backstroke too

Swim Practice

Time again for Reagan and Cooper's swimming lessons.  They were a little more timid tonight than they have been.  Not sure what's up with that!  Greg says my children are going to hate me for putting them through this!

going back to the side of the pool

if Reagan doesn't put her head in the water like they ask her, she'll get a cup of water poured on top of her head!
