Swimming 2008

We have been going swimming a couple of time a week and Abigail loves it more and more each year. She isn't afraid of the water and learns more the older she gets just by going and getting used to it. She is really independent in her life jacket and just swims and goes wherever she wants. She kicks great and goes all over the pool. She likes to go"to the deep."
She thought she wanted googles from watching the other kids wear them but she doesn't really like them. She tries to wear them but has them off in a minute. She doesn't voluntarily put her face in the water if you ask her too, however she jumps in and gets splashed all the time and it doesn't bother her then. She seems to not even notice that the water got in her face.
Not the best habit but the more I told her not to do that the water was dirty the more she did it. I hope it is her age, she can be stubborn like that. I have just decided the best way to handle things like this is to just ignore her if it is not killing her and she eventually stops.
Bringing her noodle with her to the side.
