Life with a Baby
Guess Who is Crawling
Guess who is learning to crawl? Nara figured out how to stand up and
glide on furniture first, but once she did that she really figured out
crawling. Now she is doing a little bit of both - she is often
faster crawling, but she walks when she can.
Going to The Pool
Of course I don't remember the first time I went swimming - I think I
was in swimming classes before I started Kindergarten, but I'm not
sure. Now it's not uncommon to see babies who can't yet crawl in
the pool with their parents. Nara seems pretty happy with the
pool - I wouldn't say relaxed, but happy to be outside.
I think her favorite is when she can do a little
walking and a little licking at her own pace. We booked in
a swimming class which taught us how to play with toys with her and
some skills to help her get acclimatized to being in water. She
isn't so much into the balls and boards yet, but she does like the
watering can and splashing. She isn't super keen on her head
under water, but she doesn't yell when it happens.
It doesn't take long for a really tired Nara.
It's not a slam dunk, fall asleep in the car on the way home, but she
does often nap for longer than usual after.
