Memorial day water fun

As any of you local ladies know, we had great weather during most of the Memorial weekend. That meant Jordan got to experience the joy of a pool for the first time. I think she was a little baffled by the bathing suit when we were putting it on. I guess I'm either brave or crazy posing with her in a bathing suit- of course, she is covering me up for the most part.

She was kind of iffy about the float. She seemed alright with it to begin with but started fussing after 5 or 10 minutes. I was so disappointed at that point.


When I got her out of the float and played with her in the pool where she could kick and splash, she loved it. We stayed in until she looked like a prune on her hands and feet (and then some). Since Dave was in charge of the cameras, he ended up video taping a fair amount and only got this 1 shot of her out of the float in the pool.

she will warm up to the floatie...what helped with lydia was give her a toy to chew on and play with. we also liked to push her around and play that she was swimming around herself.

Love the pictures and I am so jealous that you have nice enough weather to be in a pool!!! We had hail again last night! But such is life way up here.

I figured she'd love the pool because she loves the bathtub so much. You guys will have a great summer splashing around. Love all the pics!!

Love it! And I agree, she'll probably warm up to the float by the end of the summer. Emma has believed that she is able to swim since she was about 13 months old though, so maybe Jordan holds that same belief!
