So excited to be finally be at the pool!
The reward for doing something her teacher asked
Practice kicking!
Ava was so excited when I told her she was going to take swimming lessons even though she really had no idea what that involved. She loves swimming, so I am sure she thought it was going to be fun. I opted for private lessons since I didn't know how well she would do in a group having never done it before. After lots of talking about what was going to happen before we went, Ava was an angel for her swimming teacher. She did everything she asked except putting her face in the water. Once her teacher told her that if she did something she asked she could go down the slide, Ava didn't forget that. Each time she would finish kicking or jumping off the side, Ava would ask if it was time to go down the slide yet. Of course, she loved the slide. Owen and I sat on the side of the pool and watched, but Ava could have cared less. Afterwards, her teacher said she did really well for a 3 year old. She said most kids her age sit on the side of the pool and cry. Ava certainly wasn't scared of doing anything. As soon as we got in the car, she asked if she could go again. Lucky for her, we have lots more lessons to go!
