Ryan's 1st swimming lessons!

On July 26th Ryan started his first class of swimming lessons at a gal's house (Pam Kutcher) along with Shelby, who has taken lessons there in the past. They get to go Monday & Tuesday's from 1-2pm. She's got a great outdoor pool! Ryan was excited and definitely a little nervous about the whole idea. Took him a few minutes to get in- he sat on the side of the pool for a little bit and watched the other couple kids and then started to work his way in. Jacob and I didn't get to stay the whole time as Jacob really wanted in the pool, but Auntie Kim and her sis-in-law, Julie were there so they stayed and watched him and Shelb. Ever since he's had such a great time and keeps asking when he gets to go back to swimming lessons! It's fun to see the progress he makes every week!

Fully in the water! He loved that it was only 3 1/2 ft. deep in the shallow end so he could touch the bottom with no problem!
The next day after swimming Shelby came home with us and we made Italian Sodas... mmm so yummy! Her and Ryan just love them!
