Surfside



We took Olivia to Surfside Beach this weekend. She loves the water and no longer wants to hold our hands as she runs toward the waves (scary!). She had lots of fun building castles in the sand and playing in the water. She also came home with a little souvenir, her first sunburn:(

By the way, I think all of our posts this summer show Olivia in a bathing suit. I am so ready for Fall.

Swim Lessons


Olivia getting her certificate and freeze pop.



Olivia completely two weeks of swim lessons recently. I think she did pretty good. She was already comfortable in the water, so the classes really just gave us some things to practice with her. She didn't like blowing bubbles in the water with her instructor, but she does it for us when we go swimming together, and of course she does it in the bathtub. She really likes going underwater too. The last day of class was lifejacket day. Olivia and Luis got to go down the slide into 10 ft of water!!! She wasn't as scared as she looks in the picture. She asked to go again when they were done.
