The bundle can float! That's right folks, the bundle is officially a little goldfish! After much hesitation and contemplation, the husband and I finally agreed to introduce the bundle to the great world of swimming.
I know, some of you may be thinking, "wow, isn't she a little young for that?" Don't think I haven't heard the judgement in your voices, but I am ignoring you. Why? Well, simply because I know my baby better than you. Not to be rude or anything...it's just the truth. She absolutely loves bath time and water...so I went with my gut and enrolled her in a swim class.
"Are you serious?" Yes, I am serious. In fact, she had her first lesson yesterday. I basically just tossed her in the pool and hoped for the best. What!????? Holy cow, you guys need to relax, I am just kidding. Seriously though, it is a parent and baby class. So, the parents are holding onto the babies the whole time while an instructor leads the little exercises.
We got there nice and early and I figured the experience could go down in two possible ways. The first, more desirable way being that she loves it and can't get enough. The second, less desirable way would be that she hates it and screams bloody murder until I remove her from the pool. I crossed my fingers.
You're dying to know what happens, right? Well, let's just say the bundle LOVED it! Oh my, it was like she had been waiting her whole short life for the experience. She floated, she kicked, she paddled and giggled. It was a blast for both of us. After a 30 minute power session, she was beat, and so was I. Good thing bedtime was a few short hours away!
I am glad I took her and I have a feeling she was pretty happy about it too. Here's to more swim sessions with my little goldfish!
