Water Baby....

I posted a few new pictures of Olivia playing in the water. She loves the water! I am not so sure she understands that the water is not something you can breath in though....For instance, the day we were at the pool she decided that she liked her face in the water, all of the time. This is a tough one to explain to her because all she really cares about is having the water on her face. So while I was dragging her out of the pool, because people thought I was trying to drown her (I am sure of this), I tried to explain to her that she can put her face in the water for a second, however she cannot keep it there! She still continued to roll around in the shallow end and continuously put her face in the water. Another thing she loves to do at the pool is jump into the water. This is awesome for a one and a half year old to jump into the water with no fear, but only awesome when someone is there to catch her. She apparently believes that she can jump in, at any point in time, and we will miraculously catch her. Even if we are 10 feet away, we should be able to catch her. I believe this "no fear" attitude comes from her father, he does jump out of perfectly good airplanes just for kicks...He also had a pool growing up and believed that he was invincible, his mother has told me this. They are so much alike it is like seeing my husband in a miniture sizw of a girl....
