Now I, Eric, am an authorized poster on our blog! In an effort to shame Twighla into writing more, I will post a short blog entry about Rory and my trip to the pool at the Family Y.
Rory had a blast, she is a total water baby. We got there just before they opened and waited at the gate until we could get in. Rory immediately wanted to go on the water slide, but since she can't swim, she couldn't go. She was even more upset when one man took his kid down the slide with him, only to get yelled at by the lifeguard. Next time we go, I'm just going to get yelled at.
Rory liked the big pool quite a bit. She would jump into the water after telling me to get back as far as I could. She has little fear of the water and I'm a little worried about that since she can't swim. In the little kid pool, she would tell me to go underwater, then stick her head under the water and wave at me.
After about an hour and half of hard playing, we went in the building to go potty, when we came back out it was during the mandatory rest period. This upset Rory because she wanted to go back into the water. Finally after ten minutes, we were allowed back in the water. We played for about twenty minutes longer then decided to go home and get some lunch.
Not a bad pre-Father's day celebration.
