Family Swimming Day!

Took Chloe to the local swimming pool today… The weather was not too hot and there were clouds in the sky – so we thought why not!!!
With her wetsuit, floatie toys, inflatable arm bands and palm-tree ring with holes for her legs, Chloe was ready for her first proper swim!
Hupps held Chloe as he went into the water… (Water wasn’t too cold)… Her legs touched the water, then her waist – no crying yet – so all seemed ok… Then we progressed to put her into the inflatable palm-tree ring… All of a sudden as Hupps let go of her – Chloe panicked – *Loud screams, tears!*
So we pulled her out of the ring, held her and calmed her down… Played in the water with her for a while and everything seemed good! *Splash, splash!* Tried again to put her in the palm-tree ring – but Chloe didn’t really feel comfortable – so just held her throughout the whole time in the water…
Must go more often! Had fun – even though the staff there were mortified that we should bring such a young baby boy(!?!?) to a swimming pool -*Firstly, she’s a girl with still not much hair grown! And she’s 6 months old now!* – “What if she falls ill? Don’t swim too long! It’s too cold… You young parents are not experienced…” Ummm – Oh well!

Bit early for Anais isn’t it?!?!? They say should wait until 6 months old cos the chlorine is bad for their skin!
