Alex the Swimmer

Alex learned to swim under water for the first time on Wednesday. She figured out that she can hold her breath under water, and she just decided to take off. She could right away swim about 5-7 feet under water to me from the steps of the pool. The pool we were using is a salt water pool, which helps with the stinging in the eyes and the burning of your nostrils when water gets up there. It also has buoyancy benefits. The pool is a lap pool so it's about 4 feet deep and 6 feet wide. Also, a major plus, it helps with her eczema! We went again last night as a family and really had a blast. I hope Kim and Jeff don't mind us intruding on them!
