ISR Swimming: Makenna

Look, No Hands! This picture shows a big Milestone for us... This is also Makenna's 4th week of ISR Swimming (see Caden's in the previous post). This is the first time that Angelee has not had to totally hold Makenna during the float. She is floating on her own at this moment for this picture. Guess she was hamming it up for the camera!





Makenna also knows how to grab the bar. She mostly "glides" to the bar, but at least she knows she is supposed to grab it and hold on.













This is something the instructor is working on... Makenna has a tendency to put her head too far back (and then swallows too much water). Makenna has a lot to learn still, but I am happy she is picking up her float better this week.



She does a couple of "kicks" to reach for Angelee.








Caden happily waiting his turn. He always wants Makenna to go first. :)


Now, it is HER turn to watch and cheer for Caden!

Wow. I had no idea someone that little could be a swimmer. I am so impressed. Very essential skills for anyone with a pool... probably a good skill for those without one too!
