I want to blog to not only share our (well Addison's) life with others who are interested, but also so that I can have it to look back on. I think it would be pretty cool for Addison to be able to come and look back on so many of our memories (good & bad).
My time with her is short & I have quickly realized it flies by. This is such a great way to cherish & save each of our memories. I've been a "blogger" for less than a year & I already love to look back at older posts.
One of the reasons I never get around to posting is because I spend way too much time trying to entertain my readers & keep them interested, but I've realized this isn't for them. I'm doing this for ME. If people are interested & keep reading then great, but if it ends up only being me I'll be perfectly okay with that. (:
This week (April 22nd) I finally took her to the pool. It warmed up enough (or so I thought) and we had no other plans. I asked her if she wanted to go swimming & she started jumping for joy and running through our apartment saying "Swimming Yaaaaaaay! Swimming! Swimming! Swimming!". It was adorable & made me smile. I love that she is such a water baby.
The water ended up being pretttttty dang cold or I've just gotten spoiled in the heated pool at the YMCA. Addison still wanted to get in so I sucked it up & jumped in. Brrrrr!
She was really timid at first. It surprised me a little, but once we got going she had a blast. She isn't near as brave as she was last summer, but I'm actually thankful for that. We will definitely have to spend a lot of our summer swimming this year. I'm PRETTY sure the neighborhood we are moving to has a pool! The ONLY downside of leaving the apartments! We will find out more about that this next week.

Don't feel obligated, that's a good perspective you have. IT's just now getting warm enough to start heating the water. I need to check that out because I'm pasty!
