Scoop, Scoop, Kick and Kick

My new favorite words: scoop, scoop, kick and kick. Eli and Colton started swim lessons this week. At first, I'll admit, I wasn't thrilled about going every day for 2 weeks, but the 2.5 to 3 hour nap that follows every lesson is glorious!

What can you do with 3 hours in the middle of the day? Well, let me tell you!
1. Go to Costco and actually search the aisles without a foodie fanatic toddler.
2. Get ALL your laundry done.
3. Complete most of your work projects during normal business hours.
4. Take a nap -- tee-hee. That was my favorite day!

Eli is enjoying it for the most part. He is learning some swim technique, holding his breath and jumping of the edge. We have two older boys in our toddler group so maybe he will imitate them. They are fearless and it makes me fearful of Eli being two-and-a-half.

He is not keen of putting his face or ears in the water and also not a fan of the dunk. I think he might have a little crush on our instructor too! Not only is she cute, but she has some great ducky toys.

Colton and Eli ready for the first day.


Does he look excited or what?

  1. They are adorable. Have they decided who the wingman is going to be yet? Cuz these boyz are so cute I can't see anyone letting them learn to swim. There will be groupies following them everywhere! Oh wait,this will began to happen when they turn 10yrs. and the gurlies won't leave them alone. I hope they're good swimmers!
    Cuz if I swam with them now I don't think I could leave them alone.THEY ARE SO CUTE!
