Underwater World

We have spent the entire summer at the pool so far. We go as many days a week as possible. It is soooo much fun - I love going - it's great exercise for the kids and gets us all out of the house (and keeps us cool)! And the kids are learning how to swim so well. Kaylee has learned how to do flips and handstands. Konnor no longer needs to wear a life jacket. He can go off the diving board in the deep end and swim to the edge without a problem. Kenna has even decided she likes to swim underwater! Here are some pictures of all of the fun...

The three Johnson fish.

I told Kaylee to go under and blow bubbles... this is the result!

Our little swimmer, Konnor!

Kenna is going after the ball in the upper left hand corner of the picture!

Kaylee taking a swim in the depths of the pool...

Kaylee doing a "one-arm handstand" - it's one of her favorite things to do.

Little fishy Kenna.

Oh my gosh!! I can't believe Kenna underwater with her eyes open!! I am SUCH a water bug and poor Rea with her sickly ears has NEVER been submerged! I can't even imagine the hysteria if her head fell under even during a bath. Makes me sad for her but yeah for Kenna!!!

Love those pics! Did you buy a disposable water camera for those? I've been thinking about doing that for awhile. The pictures turned out sooo cute!

I love these pictures! I am very impressed with Kenna. We are just trying to help Clover get her head under water with her mouth closed to keep her from swallowing all of that pool water....good job Kenna!
