We finally got a membership to the YMCA. It's been a long time coming, and we LOVE it. Having access to the pool has been the highlight for the kids. We go there on days I'm not even taking a class, just for fun. There is a baby pool, a rec pool (with a slide and other fun things), and a lap pool. The rec pool is closed on weekdays, now that school has started, but the others are still open all the time.
This is where I made the new blog header from. So cute. I love these kiddies of mine. :)
Getting their hair wet, to make a funny picture. Love it.
Matix has been practicing swimming underwater lately, without his floatie, and he's getting pretty good. I think next summer, if he hasn't figured it out on his own, we'll do swim lessons.

How nice that you got a YMCA membership!! Jolie and I just took Bradley and Alexandra to one of the nice Milwaukee community pool/waterparks yesterday. Ali is also very adept at swimming underwater, and I explained to her that all she really needs to do is figure out a way to come up for a breath of air once in awhile, and then keep going. Seems like that was all she needed, and she really took off!
So happy for you guys, I can't say enough good things about the YMCA! We love it! And way to go Matix! Doing swim lessons at least once was helpful I think if nothing else because then I could see what kind of things they were working on and so this summer I haven't felt the need to put them in lessons I have just been working with them on my own. But once they get to that point it is a lot easier, and more fun too!
Looks like another fun place to hang out at on a hot summer day. I love the wave in Matix's hair. I can't believe how well Matix is doing with his swimming. Way to go, great job Matix man! :) Grandma is so proud of you.
