Random Menagerie

On Sunday evening, Megan watched the kids and Taylor and I saw Heaven is For Real... great movie!

Another Tuesday at Grammy's school.


When we came home, our neighbors were playing outside, so we went to visit.


Here's the most exciting thing... Last night, before dinner, we went for a little swim in the pool.  Anna Belle has been doing well in swim lessons, despite her occasional tears.  She's floating on her back by herself, though she sort of freaks out when she realizes she's doing it on her own.  I told her I could teacher her to swim without floating on her back, the way Miss Andrea taught Brady how to swim.

She started with pushing across the hot tub, like the video below.

Anna Belle was on a total adrenaline high.  She would not stop going back and forth and back and forth.  She has a hard time reaching the high edge of the pool, so sometimes she lingered a little longer than she would have liked.  Even that didn't stop her.  Her confidence brings her to a really scary stage, in the pool.  I'm going to continue working with her, in addition to swim lessons.  If she can add a little kick in there, she'll be swimming really soon.
