A Fort & Swimming

Hannah has been getting a little bit bored around here. She likes to be outside but that only goes so far. Yesterday we made a fort in the living room with chairs, a sheet, and a big box. She banged her head many times as she would try to steady herself on the sheet and it would give way. Overall she had a great time. Daddy even took some time to play in the fort with her.





Last night we went to Family Night at the Malin Pool. You are supposed to shower before you enter the pool. I walked in, turn on the shower, and Hannah immediately screamed bloody murder. We made it quick. We skipped the hair because we weren't going under water anyway. Daddy claims he never showered when he went. At the threat of being kicked out if we didn't comply we quickly followed the rules.

This was not a good start to our first "big pool" swimming experience. We got in the water and Hannah wined, wined, wined. We got out and played with the fence and tried a few other distractions. We got back in and it wasn't much better until Mommy started blowing bubbles, and then she was sold. She loved it! We swam for about an hour until I decided that she was getting too cold. Unfortunately she didn't fall asleep on the way home but bedtime when very smoothly after all of our activity.
