Swim School

Ella started swim school right after we returned from Flagstaff...as I thought would happen, she had a rough first two days - didn't want to get in the water, screaming and running away from me, crying her eyes out when put in the water - everything I needed Super Nanny for - instead she got super nice swim instructor James who was on a break but decided to help Ella out. For the first two days, Ella and James spent time together getting used to the water - mind you, this is her fourth summer taking lessons, who knows why she was so scared. Jonah and I are now in a parent-tot class while Ella is with her group the "shrimps" - she will be doing lessons all summer for sure.

Did I mention how ripped and tan Mr. James was??? Well you can see for yourself :)

And starting on day 3 (after the mighty fine bribe of a new Ariel towel) she joined her group and ever since she has been great...still hesitant, but willing.

Yay, Ella!

She is with the Mr. Tim while the others are watching.
