Introducing Our Olympic Swimmer!
Last week, Dan took our youth group kids to St. Cloud, for the Junior High Retreat!
They stay at a Holiday Inn and Suites, where the kids have many options of things to do, while also doing some fun things around the city. Because Mazy isn’t sleeping through the night quite yet, I decided it would be best for me to stay back, as it would be best for her! Though, on the day they went to the mall, I decided to drive up and visit them all. Dan and I thought it would be fun too, to see what Mazy thought of the pool!
I had to find a swimming suit for her, which was a harder task than I imagined! Our area isn’t filled with shopping options, but thankfully good ole Target had an option or 2.
We didn’t know what she would think of a pool because the water is typically a little cooler, but as soon as Dan dipped her in, she was ready to swim, to say the least!
Dan just held her head (like we do in the tub) and she just kicked away! You could tell she was having an absolute blast and that she thought this was the greatest thing! Who would’ve thought, a 2 1/2 month old would love water so much!
Her eyes were so big the whole time and that smile was permanent!
She just couldn’t get enough of it!
After she started to have a quivering lip, we decided maybe it was time to take her out, before she got too cold. She literally would never get out if it was her choice!
She just loved spending this time with her daddy!
The kicker is getting her out! Boy she just does NOT like getting out! She will let us know for about 15 minutes afterwards, with many tears, how much she doesn’t like getting out! In a way, it’s kind of cute, but also hard to hear her so upset!
We hope she always enjoys water this much! Who knows, maybe one day she will be a competitive swimmer! At this rate, she is going to strike Olympic gold!
