Greta goes swimming!

What a fun time we had this weekend swimming with Greta!  Our friends Andee and Sammy had us over to swim in their new salt water pool.  We had a blast with them and their two kiddos Samuel and Alex (both much older than Greta but at a fun age to play and splash around).  We had a lot to think about taking  the little behr swimming for the first time... sunscreen, hat, floatie, swimsuit, swim diaper.  For all other moms wondering what we chose:  neutrogena sunscreen for babies, uva/uvb protectant hat, throwback lacoste swimsuit from 1984 (it was mine), floatie from Target with canopy, and a cloth swim diaper from myswimbaby.com.  Getting her in the pool was a little scary because she is so tiny but we did it and she loved it, for about 20 minutes.  We had just enough time to both play with her a little bit before she started fussing for a nap.  Dad took her out of the pool and sat in the shade and there she napped for the rest of our stay there.  We totally lucked out that she didn't "use the restroom" in her cloth diaper, but she sure did pee on me as we were getting her out of the pool.  I am looking forward to many more swim days with Justin and Greta!  Thank you Edwards family :)
