The kids started their survival swim lessons today. In 4-6 weeks they should be able to flip over onto their back and float if they fall in a pool, as well as then swim-float-swim until they reach the side of the pool and can get out. Keegan was a little apprehensive, he didn't want to get his head wet. The instructor, Carmen, worked on floating with him today. He was able to stick the back of his head in the water at the end of the session. Keira worked on holding her breath and opening her eyes under water. She did great. It's a big project going to lessons every day and they have a very strict diet they have to stick to and I have to record everything they eat, pee, poop and sleep. So it's a big deal, but if it teaches them to be safe around a pool, it'll be worth it.

Yeah I did it!

Keira goes under
Keira is looking a rinestones on Carmen's glove. She then puts the glove under the water and Keira has to open her eyes under the water so she can see the rinestones and touch the glove. She did it!
