Waterproof!

So I've finally figured out how to conquer Madeline's fear of learning to swim without her lifevest. You see she fears getting water in her eyes and up her nose, and the lifejacket keeps her head above the water. I've gotten her swim goggles before, but they usually leak and water still goes up her nose. So I picked up a snorkel mask, I don't know why I didn't think of this before! So this evening she tested it out in the shallow kiddie pool. She's finally going underwater!!! Yay!

Maybe finally she'll be swimming like a fish this summer!

We saw one of our culdesac neighbor kids (left) at the pool with his friend (right), they were intrigued with my waterproof camera, so I shot a video of them to show them.
