Splish, splash BV was having a bash. (with video...finally!)

This was actually BV's third time at the pool, but her first time actually in the water. Before any of you Caddyshack fans get concerned about floating Baby Ruth's, let it be known that she is wearing a special swim diaper. This was the backup swim diaper because Banner was wearing the cute little purple mermaid one when we left the house and apparently got overly anxious or nervous about the pool. Lesson learned about when to put on the suit. We found a sunshirt for her and a madras hat. All she needs is her sunglasses and a camera around her neck to finish off the tacky tourist look. As you can see, she is concentrating very hard on enjoying herself.


It did not take long for BV to go from uncertainty in this picture...

to wanting to go swim over to the big kids in this picture.


Banner seemed to enjoy being in the water and the semi-weightless feeling in her legs. Most of the time I was holding her pretty tight as I did not want to have a Nirvana Nevermind situation on my hands.

The post swim contentment is all over her face. We gave her a little bit of a break before she was nagging us to go back in.





Take a look at a long overdue video of Banner enjoying the pool with her Mom. (After many painful attempts at trying to edit longer videos and then upload them. I have realized that snippets will have to do. Sorry the quality through this player seems to be a bit lacking)
