It was a pool day

Today we decided to try out the local aquatic center for some pool time fun. Grace seemed to like the pool when we were in China and she enjoys her bath time so much, we felt that she would love the pool here as well.

The aquatic center here is great. They have 3 pools. One for lap swimming, one for diving and deep swimming, and one that caters more to families and kids with a water slide, shallow end and water splash toys. Phuong decided not to go in today but when she saw the water, she kind of wished she did. When I took Grace in, I did not get the same reaction that we got in China. She cried a bit and whined.

I was determined for her to get over it a bit which she eventually did. Grace enjoyed watching the other kids and people splashing around in the pool. I even sat her on the step in the water where she could just splash around for a while. She even did well when I dunked her under. She did not cry at all. It was a good time.

On the way home, she fell a sleep. When Phuong placed her in the crib, Grace did not move for an hour...she was out. I don't know why she was so tired, I was the one moving her :)

So it appears that Grace still likes the water. We plan on going back more often during the summer. There is a closer pool so me might try that one next weekend.

We took a disposable water proof camera, so I will post pictures when we get them developed.
