Carmela (almost 10 months old now and crawling all around) and I have been taking a swim class on Saturday mornings with my friend, Holly, and her 11 month old, Abby. Carmela is such an observer. She studies her surroundings and likes to figure out who she's hanging out with. Our first Saturday, the teacher had us all line the babies up on the edge of the pool, count to 3, and have the kiddoes "jump" into the water. Carmela was too busy studying everyone else to watch her mommy, so we waited until everyone else had jumped in, before she took her turn. Now she knows the routine and enjoys the edge of pool sitting jumps, watching me blow bubbles, and waving hello to the other kids.

I am so glad she's loving the water. How wonderful for you to take her to swim!!! She's the cutest fish in the pond!
I'm so glad she's enjoying the pool! I love the pic with the two of you in the water. So glad she doesn't have "pool face" anymore!
