The Berkeley Swim Team

M. is all geared up for the "wawa". We are still working on the "t" in "water". Both girls love the water and daddy too!  They hang out in the balcony during my laps and then we all go to the warm watered kiddie pool. We love the facility but did come across our first major glitch on Monday. A super rude maintenance man who would not turn on the "manually" controlled "fun falls" (my language) on the kiddie side of the pool.   "They were just on an hour ago". Although the fountains didn't spray, we still enjoyed ourselves. M. went under water and then proceeded to try to swim like her mama. Not such a good idea yet. She all of sudden feels invincible in the water just because she donned a cap and a pair of goggles!  She was so brave!  I. pretty much giggled, splashed, and scaled daddy's upper body. I am up to swimming a half mile without breaks and am working on my freestyle becoming more efficient.  It's been a great challenge. I have learned a lot and look fwd to learning more!
