28 Weeks & Growing

Hanna is Swimming

Hanna just finished up swimming lessons last Thursday and is doing such a good job! There is a lady in our area that teaches swim and preschool and after the 8 days of lessons the kids are pretty much swimming. They still need to be watched closely and need a lot of practice! I had Max take it when he was 3 and since then he's been swimming! We took the class this time with 6 other cousins and then on Friday we had a little swim party to celebrate! Well, at the party there was about 20 kids there and not too many adults wanted to be outside in the heat watching their kids swim. At one point I was the only one out watching all these kids who are still not perfect swimmers and even little ones were outside walking around the pool, I was quite stressed and was watching like a hawk. There were a few older kids who were there and so I guess some of the other moms felt safe about that. Anyway, later that day when all the adults were outside (I was still watching like a hawk) I looked in the pool and Ruby (4) was under the water and trying to get up. Two big kids were standing right next to her and about 4 other little swimmers and I yelled to my niece Raquel (15) to get Ruby and she grabbed her. Ruby was fine just very scared and coughed up some water. I believe this is when a lot of bad things happen in the pool, it's when there are adults around and everyone feels that someone else is watching. Lets make sure we are safe this summer and no one close to us drowns!

Max's Triathlon

Max ran in a triathlon yesterday with Danny by his side the whole way! They first swam 50 yards, then road their bikes for two miles and then ran a 1/2 mile. It was in a little town called Blue Diamond (which is near Spring MT.) so there are a few hills they had to go up and down. One hill they had to get off their bikes to walk up, but other than that I was quite surprised at how well he did! I thought he would have started to whine during the race and saying he couldn't do it, but he didn't at all and he just loved it! I liked that for his first time doing the triathlon Danny was able to do it with him, I know he could have done it by himself, but he might have been too scared to do it. Max wore his new shirt, number and metal the entire day, he was so proud of himself! 50 yard swim 2 mile bike 1/2 mile run Running to the finish line Two tired boys!

Hanna's Dance Performance

Hanna had a little dance performance with her class for the parents to come watch them dance on stage. It was cute watching her, she watched the teacher the whole time and would do just what she was suppose to. The funniest thing to watch was anytime she did a jump or move all she cared about was getting back to her spot on the tape. She wanted to do everything her teacher said to do and never leave her spot!
