Fish - Finally!

I feel like we've spent five years trying to convince Elizabeth to enjoy playing in the water. She's always liked going swimming, but getting her to get her face wet or try something new was worse than pulling teeth. FINALLY she's turning into a fish. She enjoyed jumping into the pool over and over, and is now able to swim all the way across the pool. It is so much more fun to take her swimming now!

We didn't have to worry about Amelie so much! She's a natural fish. She's perfectly happy chilling in the water and doesn't mind getting her face wet or splashing.
Amelie just wanted to go down the water slide over and over and over again. The instant we'd get to the bottom, she'd sign "More." Her favorite part was the big splash at the end. She always opened her mouth wide hoping to taste some chlorine. I'm sure she went down the slide at least 200 times this week between going with Isaac, my dad, and me.
