Lil' Swimmer...

We took Laura swimming today... her first ever time in the pool. Richie and I are determined to expose her to the water and hope she likes it!



The pool itself wasn't too chilly and it felt really refreshing. She enjoyed it some of the swim, but we didn't really get any big smiles or giggles out of her while she was in there.

Swimming must make you hungry though - she screamed and needed to eat after being in for maybe 15 minutes. Then she was fairly content again, but kept alternating from content...

...to screaming... And she REALLY screamed after she was dunked. (Yes, we dunked our 4 month old...) We used to dunk the babies in the swim lessons too.

Some pics of the fun...





And glad to be all done and getting warm...

Between the two of you I'm sure she will love the water. She'll be swimming before she walking.
Cute pictures!
