| new goggles |
Isabelle got a pair of goggles today and hasn't taken them off... Only if they are extremely fogged up will she let me remove them from her head so I can clean them and put them promptly back on... You see, Miss Isabelle, is in no way shape or form about to stick her head under water but hates water being splashed in her eyes. And yes, goggles protect our eyes...so it dawned on mama today that going to the river or lake might be just a tad more enjoyable if she had some "eye protection" from the incidental splashes of other kids and adults. And boy was mama right! Isabelle seemed to have a bit more confidence today at the river, plunging in without worrying about her eyes...and even asking about the mechanics behind dunking her head under water (
not trying quite yet but thinking about it!). She also got a set of dollar floaties to go around her arms and thoroughly enjoyed them. She went just a bit deeper (
with mama by her side of course) and was full of giggles over her new pink plastic "arm muscles".
As if they need any more similarities, but Miss Magnolia has requested a pair of goggles for her birthday. She figures the goggles will provide enough courage to brave splashes and the spraying frog slide at the city pool...we'll see!
