Swimming Fun

While away for 2 weeks the kids spent a lot of time in my parents inground pool.  They love, love, love the water.  Eventually when the time is right, we too will own a house with pool so the kids just have to go out the back door to get to the pool.  Both kids are fishes.  After watching Emi this summer I am seriously going to be looking into a toddler swim class so she can learn to swim.  At my parents house she was crawling along the edge.  She also kept stepping off the last stair to touch the bottom.  The problem was the water was over her head if she stepped down.  But did she care?  Noooo!  She thought it was hilarious.  We also had a get-together one day with the kids' cousins and friends.  And about the time we were wrapping everything up, a thunderstorm hit.  It was a great afternoon and I'm looking forward to next summer when I will be home for good spending more time with my family and friends.

My cousin Rob's kids S & E.  They are really cute kids.  S looks like his Grandfather (Rob's dad) and E is the spitting image of her father.  I always tell Rob that E is him in a dress!
