Michael Phelps and Dara Torres (the early years)

Eric is doing really well at swimming lessons this year.  When he keeps his head down and his feet up, he can swim a little distance.  He has a tendency to try and swim while standing straight up- not really the best way to swim.  Either way, he is doing great, getting braver and all in time for swim lessons to end in two weeks!

Ally loves the pool too.  We found out that she is so happy in an inner tube.  She just floats all over the pool and rarely does she fall through.  She tries to blow bubbles and is sometimes successful and will kick her feet when she wants to.  Not when you ask her to, only when SHE wants to!
