On Monday we started swimming lessons at the YMCA with Mya. It's a class where parents are able to be in the water with their kids to get them used to water. It's been a lot of fun and Mya loves being in the water. We sing songs, bounce around, float and play games. Mya loves floating on her stomach (not so much on her back) and we're working on paddling and kicking (easier said than done!)
In the morning I ask her if she's ready to go swimming. She gets a big smile on her face and says, "YES!"

On her second day of swimming lessons, we got her to pose in her swimsuit. Our little girl isn't so little any more! Cue the tears...
Mya also got to go to lessons with JUST Daddy! Momma went out to lunch with a friend from work, so Daddy dug out the swimming trunks. They had a good time!
Today at lessons Mya even put her face in the water to blow bubbles! This is a big thing for her! She HATES getting her face/head wet, so this was pretty awesome! And it wasn't like she was blowing bubbles...more like drinking the pool water. Oh well!
