Scoot, Swim, Scoot, Swim

It's not crawling that gets Maika around these days; it's scooting. She gets on her belly, holds her legs up, and pumps them to move herself around. Yesterday she discovered our portable stereo which is nice; now she can put on her own music instead of telling us to do it for her.
To provide a positive outlet for all of Maika's energy, we signed her up for swimming classes at the sports gym we go to. They have a class for babies as young as 4 months. The class is held 3 times a week, 45 minutes each session. Monday was Maika's first class, and she did great. There was no crying even when the teacher dunked Maika under the water. Her second class, Wednesday, was a little different. There was a point in the class where the kids were passed from parent to parent. The farther Maika got from Yoko, the more she cried. Oh how she loves to be in Mommy's arms. Once she get used to the pool a little more, Erik will be the parent in the pool when he can.



The music that is on this video was not added by us. It was what was playing at the sports club.

Waking up from a good nap takes a little time as we all know.
