Swimming in Winter

Sierra and Robbie started swim classes this month. A little crazy at the start of winter I know, but we have an indoor pool here at our gym, and that's how ya gotta do things here in Idaho!
Robbie is learning the different strokes of swimming



In two weeks Robbie's confidence in the water has really increased. The first day of swimming he didn't want to get in because he said it was to deep. So with encouragement and a hand to hold he is now swimming the length of the pool with only the help of his water noodle.

Sierra has also improved in just the past two weeks. Both Robbie and Sierra are in the beginners level swimming but Sierra is just a step head of Robbie. While Robbie is learning strokes and holding his breath under water, Sierra is putting those both to practice!


They both look forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays because they know that's the days they get to go swimming came rain or shine or in my case snow or ice!

I'm envious. I wish I could go swimming every week. ;-)
