To Matt's dismay, I signed the boys up for swim team this year. They practice 4 times a week and have meets that last a half of every Saturday. Aside from the time commitment, it is so great to watch the progress so quickly. Lincoln's legs have been pretty tired and sore from getting some new muscles. They are doing quite well. Bennett, I know could swim all the way across, but they allow the 6 and unders to hold onto the lane lines for a rest as long as they don't pull along them, and Bennett likes his rests.
At their first swim meet with friends James Gregory and Jill Stewart.
On the ready bench.
Here are their first races. They both won their heats, Bennett by a landslide and Lincoln by just a hand. It's so fun to watch them. They also did backstroke but my phone died before I could record it. Backstroke needs some work!!

I love that our friend James almost falls off the blocks in the beginning.
Am I such a dork that I teared up watching this? I'm going to be a wreck at my own girls stuff. It just makes me so proud of those little bugs!
