First Time Swimming
To kick off the beginning of summer, we went swimming the first day our complex pool opened. Baby Cakes loves to "swim" in the bathtub, so I thought she would be thrilled. After a little hesitancy in the kiddie pool, she did eventually start kicking and enjoy herself although not nearly as enthusiastically as I first thought she might. Later we tried putting her a baby floatie in the big pool. She DID NOT like that. I don't blame the girl - the water was freezing cold. She did get back in the kiddie pool, but with far less gusto than the first time. It's been so rainy lately that we haven't been back. It makes me wonder if she will eventually love swimming like her daddy, or sometimes tolerate it like me.
"I wonder what is going to happen? Will it be fun???"
"Um.. Daddy, what are we doing?"
"Okay! This isn't so bad. Maybe I'll kick"

How fun!! Our girls have really been enjoying the swimming pool in our apt. complex. (Actually they have been going in the hot tub, which is just warm, so maybe that is why they have enjoyed it!!)
I can't believe how big Eliza is!
I bet she'll love it! Just wait until you find some warmer water :) We've starting swimming daily with our kids at 7:30 am and the water is truly perfect -- but that is just how Texas is! Wish we could share some of our heat. Miss your family!
