Now Katie Looks The Part

Now that things have settled back down from the Holidays and the kids are back in school Katie's swim team is going full steam ahead!

We were able to get her a team swimsuit and cap so she now looks like a part of the team! They are the Athol Amphibians hence the frog on her bum.

She is improving each time she is in a meet and the last 2 meets she has taken time off of her 50 free. She learns things so fast it's amazing. She has to work hard, but she can hold her own with the kids in her age group which are 8 and under.

We now have a swim meet every weekend until march when the season is over so we have been spending a lot of time sitting at the pool. The boys are now getting use to it and have found ways to keep themselves busy while Katie has practice.
She has make some good friends and she really has a lot of fun with them. She and a couple of the other girls got a special medal at the last meet for being the best cheerers on the team. I think we are in for the long haul now and we will keep supporting her as long as she enjoys doing it. Great Job Katie!!
