Swimming underwater.
This was supposed to be a smile, but the sun was a bit bright.Elli has made amazing progress this summer in her swimming abilities. We ended last summer with Elli swimming on her own. This summer she has learned many things on her own. Here they are: jump in alone, jump in and swim, jump in and go under and swim, float on back, swim on back, go from tummy to back to tummy all while still swimming, go down slide to waiting parent, jump off diving board to mommy, wear goggles, wear goggles and swim underwater, swim underwater, dive down to get rings or diving sticks, and finally today, practicing hand stands!!!!! She seems to be really good at swimming and loves the water. I hope she continues to love it and try new things. We'll see what happens by the end of swimming season. Maybe I'll have another new trick to report:)

It is so amazing that Elli is doing handstands - what a fast learner!!! I am not so sure about the picture where she should be smiling...the reflection of the water makes it look like she is trying to make a scary face at us...then again, that is possibly her motive too :)
