Big Girls

Afton and Lilly have experienced new things this week.

On Monday (June 13th) they started their very first swim lessons. We usually go swimming once a week in the summer but they have never had lessons. It is funny to see how they each handle new situations. We thought Afton would be fine (she usually is with new things) and Lilly would be more anxious. Afton jumped right in while Lilly was very hesitant. Afton looked back and saw her sister being anxious and thought she should do that too. After about 10 minutes of hestitation Lilly really got into it and loved it while Afton just sat on the edge for the rest of the lesson. Jim and I were really surprised how hesitant Afton became. Hopefully it will get better for her.

*Don't you love how their swimsuits cover like 80% of their body. I am a mom who frequently forgets sunscreen so I thought these kind of swimsuits would be good :)


Here they are right before swim lessons started.



Today they had their first dance class. They loved it. There is a tinted window for parents and it was so fun to see them dance. Lilly was hesitant the first five minutes but then they both LOVED it!!!! Afton did everything the teacher asked while Lilly would pick and choose.





*Here they are dancing in our front room right before we left. I think a big wall of mirrors will be loved and well used by three girls who like to dance in front of it.
