Gideon and Kristie Go Swimming...



Gideon and Mommy went swimming today! Gideon was so excited, he put on his swimming suit as soon as he woke-up! Swimming in Russia is very different than in the states. You must have medical clearence and must also wear a swimming cap---which Gideon thought was so cool! Thankfully, we were able to get the necessary certification without the required examination---Kristie was especially grateful!

Kristie and Gideon enjoyed this special time with their friends Elvera and Dima. Gideon and Dima took a swimming lesson, while Kristie and Elvera tried to stay afloot lap swimming. Kristie was really impressed with the facilities, the organization of the children's class and really enjoyed diving off the starting blocks. Elvera said she looked like a pro---HAHA!!!
