Swimming




We have been swimming a lot. Being in the water is about the only way to be outside in this heat. We went to the park once last week with our playgroup, but it was so hot the kids only played for about 45 minutes. Next week we are going to a spray park so they can being cooler and play together longer.


Bryce is doing really well in learning to swim. He is just very cautious so that holds him back some, but he is willing to try in the "low end" (shallow) and is getting better. Mia will finally get in the water and seems to like it. Maybe the heat finally got to her! We have been swimming as a family, just me and the kids, with cousins and with friends. It is pretty much what we have been doing every week. So, we have decided that in our new home search, we would really like our own pool or at least a community pool. We'll see what we can find, but that would be great for next summer.
