4 hours of swimming and still going strong

We headed out after church for another day of swimming with J and N.  (she has already blogged our day, so hop over to her blog to see her photos- I will go copy some of her photos tomorrow and post them here) This time the plan was to swim until the boys dropped.  4 hours later the mommas were dropping, the boys were still prepared to go, but Hijo and I ad to head over and see Lulu and Darrell.  And then the pool closed due to contamination in the water (yes, that kind of contamination- faraway from us though).  here are some of the pictures of the day.

diving for toys

The mommas jumped off the diving board.  I promised J that I would not post her picture on the blog- but I might could be bribe to email them to folks (just kidding J ;).  J and I also swam about 300 yards during adult swim.  So we got exercise too and from these diving photos, I realy need lots more exercise.

The boys swam for 2.5 hours and then we had a snack and a rest.  The boys enjoyed sharing lunch with each other and then moved on toy sharing.

We gave N  Hijo's old swim suit.  Hijo is too tall for it, but as I watched N playing in it, I realized I need to find a large version for Hijo as the swim vest is not as comfortable for him and his swimming skills are regressing.  So off to check out websites tonight to determine where I need to be looking.

The boys spent 2 hours jumping from the edge into the pool.  J is near the boys while I took the pictures. 

both hitting the water.  Hijo is furthest away and N is closer to me

Climbing out- they have the synchronization down

N in full flight into the pool.  Hijo is behind him with his hands over head to "dive" in.  They both do excellent belly flops.  But the swim suits protect them.


I ended up sun burnt, but had a great time.  Hijo starts soccer (futbol) next weekend.  We'll see if that wears him out.

Love and hugs,
Momma
