Amalia swimming

Lisa decided its time for Amalia to learn to swim so she signed her up for lessons. These are run on campus and really the teachers are students who don't seem to do much with the young kids but let the parents ease the kids into the water so the kids aren't scared. Lisa has been taking her swimming Tuesday and Thursday mornings and its been going well. Amalia seems comfortable in the water and has even dunked her head. 

We also took Amalia to the county pool yesterday and she had great fun on the slide. It was hot out so the pool was super crowded. Its sad how many american kids are fat but thats the subject of another post. 

Amalia's new ride

For Amalia's birthday she got a tricycle. Not just any tricycle but a tough, off-road tricycle. Needless to say, she loves it. Unfortunately, her legs are still a little too short so she doesn't go very well but that will soon change. You bicycle people might notice a little modification I made to improve it... a little titanium only makes things better!
