My Fishy

This is the little girl that wouldn't get her face wet at the beginning of the summer. The little girl that wouldn't get in water that she couldn't touch. The little girl that needed a tube and floaties to jump off the side of the pool with me catching her. She's come a long way this summer! We went to our friends Scott and Emily's house last night. E had a blast playing with their 2 girls and another little girl that was over. She was the youngest of all of them and had to keep up. Bruce was so cool and swam with the girls and held the pool cleaning pole at the diving board so they could spring up and touch it.
Then the big girls decided it would be more fun to jump over. So E did it too, this was quite the belly flop!
Last weekend we got to go to my friend Laura's moms pool. Notice how beautiful the background is, its right on a little pond.
Here is sweet Berkley checking out the ducks and annoyed that mommy is telling her to turn around.

I agree - I have never seen such a great belly flop before!! :) Did she have any tears after that one? We had a great time swimming with you guys - I'm excited to see how the girls do at their swimming lessons.
