She took 5 weeks of Infant Swimming Resource swim lessons which are survival swimming lessons where they teach infants and young children basically how to roll onto their back rest, float, and breath. It was fun to watch her progress from not knowing what to do to floating all by herself. She still needs a lot of practice but I do really like knowing that she has the life saving skill of floating on her back.

She is getting more and more active and loves to climb on things. She had three tips in a two day time span that resulted in a bruise on her forehead. One of them we were sitting in the backyard by the pool (not swimming, we were all in regular clothes) Skye was exploring around and found a stick that she wanted to stick in the pool. Just as I said "She's going to end up wet", she tipped right in head first onto the first step. She was okay and we all ended up a bit wet.

We have gone to a few kid events. There is a kids club at the mall once a week and while she likes it we haven't had much success staying the whole time as she stresses me out at it. She likes to climb on the stage, take other kids drinks/snacks, take off, lay on the floor. She is just being a toddler and it is cute when she dances around in the front. We have also tried a little dance/music class that once she really liked and the second time she wanted to leave the whole time so we will see. She does really like to go to open gym where she just gets to run around a big gymnastics studio. We have had several play dates with Lola and have been to Urban Jungle and the Idea Children's Museum. 

She loves to ride the carousel.

Rolling on the floor is becoming a thing she does frequently. This was during a walk around the neighborhood.

Her hair is getting long enough for me to try some cute things. It is also curly.

Dancing around at dance class, this was the first time we went and she liked it.
