Herro!!!

Sorry I've been MIA lately, being a new mom to a 7 month old can be pretty tiring. BUT, i wouldn't change it for the world. Anyways... with all the craziness that is our lives now, i enrolled Heidi into swimming lessons! I know i know, you might be thinking "a 7 month old? Swimming lessons?" But here where i live, you can start babies in lessons at the age of 6 months, the 1st set of classes is a class with age ranges of 6 months - 3 years, and is called the starfish, duck & seaturtle stage. BASICALLY, its the cutest freaking 30 minutes of our thursdays for the next 2 months.

You get in the water with you little one and go UP and DOWN and SIDE to SIDE, all while singing nursery rhymes and throwing them up in the air, having a grand ol time! Splish splashin away!

Heidi is the youngest in the class, and for her to "pass" i do believe all she has to do is, show up for class, and be able to dunk her head fully under the water without crying. Which will be a breeze i am sure of it!

Weve done 3 classes now, 2 with mama and 1 with papa. Likely we will alternate because trying to change yourself, an infant who doesnt walk, and the chaos that is the change room is ABSOLUTLY BONKERS!

Heidi is SO ADORABLE! ❤️
She has a lot of your features @merlotmama and actually swimming like this for kids is great!

They can use up all their brand new energy and allow us "oldies" to catch our breath when they snooze. 😆

Congratulations new mummy!
