Going Swimming

We had planned to go swimming at nenek's house so many times but it just seemed like everytime we were about to go, at least one of us will be having the cold! So when the moment came when all of us were well and there was a free Sunday late afternoon that we can spend doing this, we immediately grabbed the opportunity and went straight to nenek's house and swam to our hearts' desires!

Actually for me, what delayed it some more was me not actually having a swimming trunk as babah said to just use abang's which no one ever got round to dig out! So in the end mama just succumbed and bought this adorable one piece! Hey it protects me from the sun rays at least!

So at the age of 13 months I finally went for my first dip and I LOVED it! Unlike abang and kakak (who cried at their first times - though technically kakak didn't cry at her first time at the waddling pool but she did at nenek's pool), I didn't cry at all! I was a complete natural and it was not before long that I started paddling my feet to move forward!

Oh I missed swimming so much... I love just floating around and being pushed in this floater...

My usual ring float broke and since I really wanted to swim after not having done so in such a long time, I braved myself to use this arm floaties that I've never tried before! At first I just wanted to hang on to mama the whole time but mama tricked me and halfway in the pool, she let go of me and I had to fend for my own! I nearly cried but as soon as I realised that I was still floating, I was so proud of myself and just gained more and more confidence after that!

Sigh... we just wish babah and mama would take us more! Can you believe that it is now more than a month since we've gone! We're so scared that nenek is going to close the pool up as we've overheard saying that since no one uses the pool! Remember nenek - WE want to use it ok! Saja our parents are so unrealiable to bring us! Please don't close it ok!
