Water Baby





















Madi and I traveled to G&G Larson's house in Litchfield on Sunday for a visit. It seemed like a good day for a swim. While Grandpa Richard stayed home with Madi as she napped (and checked on her every few minutes like a good G'pa should:)) Mom and I searched Wal-Mart (boo-hiss) for a baby pool. Of course nobody could help us and we couldn't find one so we went home empty handed. Grandpa Richard went out later to Family Dollar and was successful. We put Madi in the pool after filling it with hose water and some warmer water from the sink. She kind of gasped at the shock of the cooler water but soon started splashing away. She LOVED swimming in her little pool! Grandpa Richard brought out his washtub that he used as a baby to see if Madi would fit. It was adorable!



















She looked like such a big girl in that little washtub. Her feet were very pruny when we finally took her out of the water. She settled in for a nap in Grandma Barb's arms after her exhausting swim.

She has gotten so big since we saw her a couple of weeks ago. Mom took a similar picture of Freddy in the tub on Wednesday. So cute. I can't wait until they get to go "swimming" together.
