Swimming!

Today Brooke had her first private swimming lesson. It's a sweet friend of Tara's that is teaching her. So Brooke feels real comfortable with her, having been around her before, and she is so good with kids and apparently a really good swim instructor too! So, I dropped her off for an hour lesson. The first of many, depending on how quickly she learns. I left because I knew she'd do better without me watching. But I tried to sneak in a little early before the lesson was over to try to get some pics. Well, she saw me (there was no sneaking) and Leslie told me her attention wasn't quite as good after I arrived as it had been. But overall, she said she did very well for the first day! So, here's the pics I took. I probably won't be there to take many more so this might be it - well, until she's swimming well anyway.We came home afterwards and had dinner. Sloppy Jo's and a pasta salad. Brenna is not a real clean eater. Brooke was much less messy as a baby. Ahhh...yet another difference between the two. And after she was "all done", we caught her letting Barkley clean her plate via her hands. Busted!Anyways, I guess there's a reason they're named "Sloppy" jo's. Haha! And the girls like to share yogurt as a nighttime snack before bed. Brooke thinks its fun 'cause "she's in charge". Brenna thinks its fun, well...because its food!

I love Brooke feeding Brenna yogurt! Dominic loves to feed Milo (usually his OWN food though - haha!) So nice that Brooke is getting private lessons. I can't decide what to do. Which pool is this? It looks beautiful and the 2ft area is awesome for learning!
