Tess' 2nd Movie! - We Love Swimming!

Hi all!

Here is dad's 2nd attempt at making a movie! Sorry for the image. Not sure how to fix that....maybe Brad can give me a few pointers?

Tess has been in swim lessons since she was 10 months old and has become very comfortable in the water. She has lessons two days a week and spa time with mom and dad. Just a week ago, Mary and I were able to sit back in the spa and let Tess swim back and forth on her own. She can say Pool and Spa and let us know when she wants to swim. During bath time, she has started giving her Mickey toy swim lessons by making him float on his back while she sings. That is what her teacher does for her....She also plays Humpty Dumpty with Mickey as she makes him sit on the edge of the bath tub. She sings the song, and pushes him in the water. You will see a clip of her doing Humpties in the movie.

We are so proud of her progress and know that she is safe around water, but she also knows not to go near a pool with out us! In the video, she floats on her back really well, we are now starting to work on rolling back to the belly to find the step. Her favorite thing to do is jump from one step to the other.

Be sure to tune in for the 2024 Olympics! She will be in Lane 4.
