Ouest is a full on swimming machine. Something clicked for her today. Up to now she could swim, but that only meant she could dog paddle in place for a little while. She couldn’t move. But today that all changed and she figured out how to move. Forward, backward, around in circles, all of it.

It’s a pretty awesome feeling watching my two-year-old girl swim across a pool. I’m feeling quite proud at the moment. I’m also currently shopping for her first surfboard. She’s earned it. Not to be outdone, Lowe is loving the water too. He goes under and comes back up without a care. He’s also splashing and kicking. The record has now been set, and he’s going to take a run at it.
