Photo Hunt - Water

The theme for this week's is WATER. This photo was taken on our vacation to California when our oldest was 13 months old. We were at a friend's house swimming in their pool. My daughter actually HATED it and was freaked out most of the time. I can't remember how we got her to sort of smile for this picture. It's the ONLY semi-happy picture we have of her swimming. Now she LOVES the water.

What a freaking cute picture! I love it! Oh and I was gonna say I didn't get the lotion yet, but then the mail man came super late today, like after 7 pm. So, when I got home from a family party tonight, it was in the mailbox! THANK YOU SO MUCH! SO FAR I LOVE IT!!! You're the best!

How special to teach the little ones to swim!

What a cute picture ! As sooner as they learn swimming the better it is ! I only learned when I was 14 and that was far to late ! I still swim like and old grandma !

Two wonderful smiles there. Both look like they are having a lot of fun. I wish I had learned to swim younger. I was never a strong swimmer

Hey? ---I read in our newspaper that Curt Schilling is going to have surgery and perhaps ending his baseball career? What happened, do you know?


My 'water' theme this week is a road trip along the coastline of South Texas...ending at an historical mansion. Come by for a visit if you can!! Lots of pictures this time...hope you'll enjoy the history.

Awww such a sweet photo and lucky you to get a good photo of her even though she was abit "unhappy" being in the water at that time.

I'm glad she loves the water now. LOL, maybe it's because of the training since she was 13 months old.

Smalltown RN said...

Liz said...

She certainly looks as if she's enjoying it!

Toni said...

Barbara H. said...

Too funny! I am glad she loves it now. My oldest was wary of it but my youngest two just loved the water and couldn't get enough time in it.

peppylady said...

It amazing how one feels about water.
I'm not a big fan of water but I can swim.
I like to water ski and fish haven't done either in years.

Happy Hunting.
