3rd day of swim lessons

We weren't going to do swim lessons until July, because the weather is usually still cold and rainy in June. But it is an unusually warm June, Zane started dog paddling and swimming well enough last weekend to move him up a class, and July scheduling was getting messy. Luckily for me the pool let me sign up late, only 1/2 before class started Monday.
Signe is in the "trout" level class where she tread water for 5 minutes; Gunnar worked on diving and the challenging butterfly in "gator", and Zane had impressive back gliding skills in "frog". His big challenge is to straighten out his arms and not dog paddle, but he's improving quickly for a newby swimmer.
