Gone Swimmin'!

Rain, rain go away....but if you stay, that's ok! Because Claire and I had a blast at our gym's indoor pool today! I met up with my friend Elena, who also happens to be a swim instructor. She showed me some fun things I can do with Claire in the pool right now to get her excited about being in the water, like splashing, kicking and putting her head back in the water. Claire was pretty apprehensive at first, but she warmed up to it. She did a great job too when her ears were put in the water--she didn't get upset at all.
But Claire really enjoyed herself when we took her to the big hot tub ( which was not on, so not as hot). I think she preferred the really really warm water over the lukewarm pool water. Definitely Jason's child. She loved it!
There isn't a whole lot you can do with a 4 month old in a pool, but the more we go, hopefully the more she will grow accustomed to the water and getting ready to learn how to swim!
