Two more fishes join the family!

Emily and Xiomara are well on their way! They love to swim without the floaties but they still have to be with an adult. Xiomara will just keep going back and forth from the steps to who ever will catch her and then back to the steps again. She'll hold her breath the entire time - no matter how long it takes her to get there (which is really a good thing) and she just loves it! Emily will get her face out of the water for a breath but sometimes she is too afraid to take one so she keeps her mouth (and her eyes) closed the whole time. I'm just so glad that they love the water and are willing and eager to try! What brave kids! And of honorable mention (but not pictured) - Kemiah is getting really good at swimming around with her floaties on her arms. She never wanted to go in the yellow tube thing so I had to hold her but I needed a little something more. Luckily, she thinks it's totally great to have the orange floaties on her arms so that's a bonus. She loves to float around and she'll come to me but then she'll turn and be ready for me to let her go. Awesome!

And to top it all off, Dad met us for lunch and was able to see all their hard work! It was a fun day at the pool. (This took place on 5/28 as our Thursday Activity, so we also had some friends to play with.)
