Swimming Update

I know you are probably tired of me talking about Hayden and swimming, but it's still one of my favorite things she does. Lately, she's doing three new things, one of which I don't have a picture of.

1) Hayden is diving in! First she learned it from a kneeling position, but even then, I can't believe she was willing to go in head first.

About a week later, Rebecca had her standing to dive in!! It's really a dive straight down, but it's certainly head first and with her arms at her ears. Video of it later.

2) A couple times, Hayden has used the kick board to focus on her kicking, which is getting better bit by bit. In my opinion, Hayden could use more of this.

3) Today, Hayden learned a little backstroke, including pushing off the wall in a backwards position (so she goes onto her back). Her arms are still moving a little backwards, but it was really the first time she had done it. Practice, practice! (Sorry, no pic.)
