Julia just loves the water! She loves baths, she loves the swimming pool, anything to do with water.
Julia swam a lot last summer in the in-laws pool. She was pretty brave and daring towards the end.
We are about done with swimming lessons at the Rec Center. Julia has no fear of the water. While the other kids are clutching their parent's, Julia wants nothing to do with me and is freely running around in chin-deep water. She will also put her head underwater without a problem. The swim instructor just cannot believe how comfortable Julia is in the water at only 2 years old. During the call the instructor has the child do several activities that help with them getting comfortable with the water (like float, go underwater, etc). She will go around to each parent/child and have them show her that the child can do it. Well, she knows Julia loves water so much by now, she no longer asks us to prove Julia can do it, she just asks if she can!LOL
At one point last week the instructor was talking to me about how she just cannot believe how comfortable Julia was in the water. She actually asked me if I had a water birth with her!!!LOL
With me being off, and the in-laws retiring, I have a feeling that we will be spending a lot of time over at the in-laws pool swimming this summer!
