Swimming class

Sunday morning means toddler swim class! Erika is very good at the back float pictured here. She really dislikes climbing out of the pool. Why can't daddy just lift her out and place her on the edge? Climbing out is very inconvenient and bothersome in her opinion.


Erika and I both enjoy the bonding experience of swim class. Although I suffer soft-tissue damage at nearly every encounter with her, I think it's well worth it.

After swimming, we always go to CrossRoads Mall in Bellevue and have Thai food. Erika is hooked on Phad Thai with chicken. She and I share a plate and it is lots of fun. Jackie tried to photograph Erika feasting on noodles, but the camera batteries were spent at the pool!
