A Big Jump

Today was Audrey's last day of swim lessons for the session. She has improved so much, and she has gotten much more comfortable in the water. Travis came to watch her (my Dad always came to watch us on the last day of swim lessons and I loved it). When she first started, her "back float" was her clinging onto her teachers neck with her legs sticking up at a 90 degree angle out of the water. As you can see she has gotten better...


As a surprise, for Audrey's last jump in the water the teacher let her go all the way under water (I was hoping she would do it). Audrey was shocked at first but both me and the teacher were so proud of her that her initial shock turned into pride.

Sorry, this pic has some weird angles, but it is the best one of Audrey.



As a reward for going underwater I took her to Dunkin Donuts to get a Boston Creme (DD is another tradition that we had when I was younger). Audrey made sure to tell the man at the register that she went all the way under water.
