More Swimming

Check out these two videos. The first one is near the end of her swimming lessons and is of her swimming to the side. The second is here at home practicing. She LOVES the pool!! We are sad that the summer is winding down and pool weather will be gone soon.

One of the best things we have done so far is the swimming program. She would spend all afternoon in the pool if we let her. She walks around on the steps, lays on the float, swims and and plays with the fountain. She was playing last weekend and her foot slipped and she slid in the water and just started floating. No panic just hanging out until I rescued her. I have to say it is a huge load off my shoulders that she is so comfortable in the water.

Catching Up....

What is Emma up to....she is a very busy, very happy, very opinionated 20 month old. We have moved into the "tantrum" phase. I am crossing my fingers that we have waded through the worst of it and moved on to just loudly objecting when she doesn't want to do something.

She runs to the door when you say let's go....
She loves petting and chasing Nickie beagle around....and the shrieks prove it
When it is time to go ..... she says bye bye..... and blows you a kiss (this also happens a bedtime)

She loves going to gymboree and she loves spending her days with Fain. They are so cute together, especially when they pass food to share.

When she sees Frank she runs up to him, hugs his legs and says Da!
