Swimming Lessons


Leigham and Chandler were in swimming lessons for the month of November. These were Leigham’s second set of lessons and Chandler is onto his last set of lessons.  The first set of swimming lessons I took Leigham to and had to accompany him into the pool, this time it was Daddy’s turn.  Hubby enjoyed the lessons I think, but I am sure he felt rushed somedays as two of the Monday’s I left him to fend for himself with both boys.

My boys take after me when it comes to swimming, they love the water and love to swim.  Once you get the boys into the water it’s near impossible to get them out, they definitely outlast Hubby in the water everytime.  I am exactly the same way, get me in a pool and death by lightning or starving to death are the only things that get me out willingly.

Chandler is now moving on to Lifesaving skills and I think he will do really well.  We are hoping to continue to give Chandler as many options as possible so he can do what he loves and not get stuck in a job just to have a job. 

Leigham did very well with Swimming lessons, he did his front float, he jumped in the water and he put his face in.  I think he will be a little fish and may finish his leveled lessons ahead of Chandler only because he is so much more active than Chandler ever was. 

I may not become a hockey mom, but I am sure  I will be "every other sport" out there mom!!!

Day in the Life Friday Five

Today is another Friday Five Link Up with the wonderful ladies Mar, Cynthia and Courtney !! Check out their blogs for some great reads!! So happy I found this link up!! It's hard for me to chronicle my days, because at this moment in time they are never exactly the same. Some I send the kids to school and relish in the silence, some Lil man is home and we are constantly on the go doing one activity or another.  Some days are weekends, everyone is home and we've got playdates and sports and activities planned. That being said, there are things I do every day, regardless of what's actually going on, they are routine and they are my favourite parts of everyday. 1) Waking up and checking my phone.  I check my phone for weather, for texts, for emails and sometimes twitter and Instagram.  I love rolling over and checking my phone before I roll out of bed, it's a way to make human connection.  It's dumb, but it's not, I also check my calendar to make sure I...

Ok I'm going to join a link up and follow along for the next few Friday's posting my Friday Five!! I learned about this Link Up through Run Salt Run , and she follows along with Mar On the Run .  Both are great blogs for runners which is how I found them through a google search!! You can see their Link Up Badge on the right hand side of my blog!! If you are interested in doing a Link Up, even starting one of our own for Alberta (if you are an Alberta Blogger) let me know I'd totally be down for doing that. The first topic is your favourite city, well I've travelled a bit in my life and I've lived in a few different cities, but my favourite still is Lake Tahoe (which technically may not be a city, but it's my favourite place!! So here are the Top Five Reasons I love Lake Tahoe!! 1. It's location What could be better then a community nestled in the mountains with a huge lake at it's centre? But that's not all, it's right on the border of C...

So each week they have a different topic to blog about and other bloggers will join the topic and conversation so you can read many different perspectives!! It's really cool, make sure you check them out!! This Week's topic, What's in your gym bag. Ok I don't have a gym bag I do have a bag that I will fill before I leave for the gym but depending on the activity there are different things included.  But In the spirit of packing a gym bag here are my Five Things I could not do without at the gym 1. Water Bottle I have to stay hydrated at the gym, whether I'm in a class, running the track, swimming or playing soccer, I never head to the gym without my water bottle. One time my water bottle broke on the way to the gym, I dropped it on the road, so I stopped at the store to buy some water, because there is no way in the wor...
