Wordful Wednesday-My Newest Swimmers

by Angie on July 13, 2010

Welcome to Wordful Wednesday……for more information, see “WW” in my handy dandy tabber box in my right side bar.

You didn’t think I’d forget to follow up my last post without a picture, did you?

Now, I do realize that lately I’ve had a lot of swimming pictures. But that’s all I’ve got. So bear with me.

love the swimming pics

2 Life with Kaishon July 13, 2010 at 6:24 pm

You can have as many swimming pictures as you want Angie : ) I mean, you have 5 swimmers now. That is something to take pictures of for sure : )

I keep forgetting to take my camera to the pool. Kaishon always says he is glad I forget : )

There’s nothing wrong with a bunch of swimming pics in the middle of summer…that’s what it’s all about, right? Congrats on having all 5 swimmers. So exciting!

I was wondering when you were going to show us a picture.

Now, can your kids come teach my oldest? I can’t get her off the step!

Congratulations on your swimmers, Angie! I remember being so relieved when both of mine could swim. Plus, it just makes summer that much more fun! Hugs to you. :)

I love your yard! So beautiful! And I love the little fishies in your pool! lol

12 Jennifer July 13, 2010 at 6:58 pm

That is awesome. I would be happy to just have my 5yo to not be terrified of the water.

13 octamom July 13, 2010 at 7:03 pm

So glad they’re all aquatic! Congrats!

Blessings!

14 Alysha July 13, 2010 at 7:07 pm

Angie,

Don’t you worry about another swimming pool picture. For those of us who haven’t had the opportunity to splash, dive, dunk, or lap in a pool, we thank you.

Beautiful pool. If we had one like that in our backyard I would have LOTS of swimming photos, too.

19 Live.Love.Eat July 13, 2010 at 7:49 pm

Love, love, LOVE it. We swim like fishies ’round here and I have always loved it as a kid and now I love seeing Tristan the same way!! And I just love pools. I could look at pics of pools all day!

My WW post is a special one. You’ll see why.

I really am so happy for you that your kiddos are swimming. I have really struggled with waterphobic kids. And now my swimming pool has banned cameras. So annoying! Happy WW. http://weloveiowa.blogspot.com/2010/07/wordless-wednesday-boy-and-his-frog.html

Is there any other thing to do in the summer besides swim? Great picture!

28 Elaine July 13, 2010 at 8:35 pm

That pool looks so nice. Sometimes I wish we had one in our backyard, especially right now!

I hear you! We’ve been at swimming lessons every day, so I have lots of pool pictures too.

32 Sherry July 13, 2010 at 8:52 pm

Woohoo! I think all kids should learn how to swim. :D Thanks for hosting the meme!

I think that picture is perfect! If summer isn’t about swimming then what is it about anyway? (Except for grownups who still have big nasty deadline projects etc etc.) Swim, little fishies swim!

Its summer, of course your kids would want to be in the water as much as possible… Do they all have raisin toes? Great picture!

40 Julie Hager July 13, 2010 at 9:47 pm

Looks fun and refreshing! I wish we had a pool to dive into, especially since our temps hit 100 today:) What a blessing for you and your family.

There’s nothing better than having a ton of swimming photos, especially from your own backyard! The kids must be having a great summer out there.

swimming is awesome. we do it all the time too, but i never think to bring my camera out. it would probably end up swimming too.

72 noexcuses July 14, 2010 at 6:47 am

Beautiful pool! You’ve inspired me to post about my girls’ swimming lessons! What a great ego booster for them to know that they can control their water destiny!

Thanks for sp0nsoring this! Great picture!

Is your pool heated? Hope it has gotten warmer for you guys, but maybe my blood is just too thin from being in the South for too long – nothing better than little swimmers!
