Ava's Swim Class

Ava has been enrolled in swim classes for a few months now. We started them while I was on maternity leave.

We bought her a new suit and cover-up just for her new big girl simming class!

 

At first, Mommy went with her to get her comfortable with Ms. Maggy and the pool.

 

 

Every time the class was over, she would cry because she wasn't ready to get out! She's a little fish. :)

 

When Mommy went back to work, we switched her lessons to an evening class with Ms. Abby.

Ava was more and more comfortable with every class.  

 

She HAS TO wear her goggles when she goes under water. :)

 

 

When summer hit, we changed her class (again) to a morning class back with Ms. Maggy!

 

 

Maggy is amazing and Ava loves her and swim class!

She looks foreword to every Wednesday morning :) Her favorite parts are the monkey walks (along the side of the pool), floating and practicing the "chicken, star, rocket ship", and diving in to get the ring.

 

Ava still can't swim with out help/floaties but she is very comfortable in the water and can ALMOST FLOAT!

We plan to keep Ava enrolled in swim lessons until she can 100% swim on her own, for survival and fun.
