Pool water tastes yummy!!

Kurt & I decided to sign Maddie & Aidan up for swimming lessons at our local YMCA. Granted they are only 7 months old, but we figured since we enjoy the water so much...the sooner we can get them used to it, the better. Plus it is a nice family activity.

They were a bit trepidatious at the first lesson, but by the end of the second lesson they were giggling and splashing up a storm. Miss Alicia is the instructor and she has us teach them how to kick, scoop and jump off the wall (with a bit of assistance). Aidan's favorite part is chewing on the little toy boat and Maddie loves to lap up the pool water and lick the chlorine off Mommy's shoulder.

They are by far the tiniest babies in class and there are no other twins, so as always, we are a bit of a show for everyone else. But the smiles on their faces when we do the hokey pokey make even the post-lesson locker room fiasco worth it!

Here are some photos of the babes in action:
