Swimming

It has gotten really hot here this last week and all that I can think about is getting into some water to cool off.  I've been wanting to take Brooklyn swimming but wanted Craig to be able to come with us for Brooklyn's first time.  Craig got done with school early today so we were able to head over to the YMCA and go swimming.

 

She was a little unsure about the pool at first but soon seemed to enjoy it once she got used to the water.  We only stayed in the water for about 20 minutes because she was getting tired but hopefully next time we can stay a little longer cuz I would love to get a tan of some sort this summer. She didn't like her sun hat a whole lot but she seemed to accept the fact that she had to keep it on and soon forgot it was there. I am hoping that she will be a water baby and love the water as much as her mama.

 

 

On Thursdays we get together with some friends for a play group. Brooklyn and I just normally hang while all the other kids play but it is nice to get out of the house and for me to have other adults to socialize with.  This week we were at Sam's and she had her little pool and water table set up in the back yard. Brooklyn was a little confused at first but seemed to appreciate the cool water on her toes since it was so hot outside. I keep telling Craig that we need to get a little pool for our backyard, but seeing as Brooklyn can't even sit up on her own it would definitely be for my benefit and it might be a little weird for a grown woman to be hanging out in one of those tiny pools, but seeing as it is so hot here and it is just going to be getting hotter I wouldn't even care how ridiculous I would look.
