Oh, the baby loved the pool so much!! As soon as we were in the water and he realized he could splash, he was kicking and his arms were going and he was grabbing at toys and splashing all over the place. He'd flip around in my arms from front to back and then back to front. Got his face wet a bunch of times and didn't care. He went strong for an hour and then started to crash. I was shocked he loved the shower too, put his face in it, was reaching into it with his hands. He nursed and then was asleep in my arms. Slept the whole way home from the pool, and I think he would have slept longer if I hadn't woken him by accident.

I'm pretty tired too! Momma has pizza dough to make though.

There are great videos on youtube for teaching babies to swim.

I bet! I'm not sure I'm ready to do underwater swimming with him yet, it was just so fun being in the water with him. Our neighbours have a pool, so hopefully he'll get some good water time this summer!

Mostly what they work on is water safety, the goal is to get babies used to water on their faces so as toddlers they will be able to swim back to the edge if they fall in.

Glad it went so well. It feels like yesterday that we were taking our duo to their baby swim classes!

I know, I was worried I'd have a crying baby on my hands. We are going back today!
