Earlier this summer, Emma and I took a mommy & me swim class called Diaper Dolphins. We were in the class with my friend, Jessica, and her son, Jackson. We went 4 times a week for two weeks...30 minutes each time. We had so much fun in the pool with them. The instructor was great. Emma worked on blowing bubbles with a wand, blowing bubbles in the pool, putting her head back in the water and floating, rowing her arms to swim to an object, sliding into the water and going completely under the water. The swim instructor would always give the kids a 'high five' after doing a skill. We learned several cute songs to help them with each skill. We practiced these over the summer at my parents' pool. Emma had such a great time being in the water. Although, I must say, she didn't love going all the way under....even so, she did a good job.

**We would try to stand by Jessica and Jackson so they could interact. One day, they each got done doing one of the skills and gave each other a 'high five'...without us saying anything. SO cute!
