Our little mermaid

We started a two week swimming course this week for Lilly. She is absolutely loving it. The other two children in her class cried and needed help from the teacher's aid the first few days, not Lilly she just went straight into the water with no fuss, mostly pure excitement. Lilly smiles and laughs the entire time and really enjoys playing in the water. Yesterday the teacher took time out to talk with the parents. She said that Lilly is doing great, but needs to work on getting her face wet :) She said that most girls don't like to get their faces wet. But other than that she is learning a lot and doing really well in her class.One thing that Lilly really looks forward to after class is she gets hot chocolate once she is showered and dressed :) She is such a tiny girl, the swim suit we have her in is an 18-24 month size and she is 3 1/2! :) That size probably wouldn't fit her in length if it wasn't a two piece. Last time we measure Lilly she was 38 1/2 inches tall! She's grown over an inch in the past month. It is so much fun to see her grow as an individual and physically. I love my little suprise girl and love being her mommy and spoiling her with hot chocolate. We have one more week of swimming lessons and then Mike and I promised Lilly we would take her to the local water park. So I've got one week to loose 15 pounds :) Just kidding, although that would be nice. :)
