The Swimming Pool!

My doctor said Harper should be about 6 months old before going swimming... well she didn't know Harper is part fish!  Just short of 12 weeks Harper Anne Huntley entered the swimming pool for the first time! 
 She is getting very close to entering and has a pensive look on her face, as many part-fish humans do when entering the water for the first time!
 My boss from work found a 3 month old swimsuit when I had been looking for one for months! Since swimming is one of my favorite things, it only felt right that I have a swimsuit for her!
 I think Daddy went a little to deep a little to quickly!

 Handing her back over to Mom!

 Audrey and Austin joined us, but Austin sometimes chose to participate in the action another way!
 Water Tummy Time
 Straight legs and pointed toes make for some good kicks!

 Her tounge is OUT OF CONTROL!  It is always out of her mouth and I LOVE IT!  

 Attempting to get some cute family pics!

I am really glad we were able to get her in the water.  It was starting to storm but still really warm.  The wind calmed down for the hour that we were there and overall Harper seemed to really enjoy the whole experience.  She was so worn out by all her hard work that she slept for almost 4 hours after getting home.

Now I just hope she sleeps through the night!
