She's a swimming fool!

This morning, there was a local instructor teaching a water aerobics class in our pool. My mom did the class while Abby and I hung out and watched. The instructor also teaches swim lessons and after the class, wanted to get us in the water so she could show me a few things to do with Abby. Since we already know Abby likes the water, I was all for it. She had her kick her little legs, "fall" into my arms off the side of the pool and float on her tummy and back. AND, she went under water for the first time! Her eyes couldn't have been wider when she came up but she didn't cough at all so must have kept her mouth closed. Good! She didn't even cry! Later in the afternoon, I took her back in to work on those things and she went under 2 more times. Almost cried but we were able to sidetrack her with our "Yay Abby's" and laughs. I'm so glad she is enjoying the water so much. She starts swim lessons at the Y next week...
