Brooke's Birthday Party........

Friday night Jason and I took Olivia to a birthday party. It was her cousin Brooke's birthday and the party was at the pool in Manchester. (Happy Birthday Brooke!!) Anyway, for those of you who do not know, up until Friday, Olivia has been petrified of the water. The day we got her she was 10 months old and had never had a bath, so we have always had water issues. Well, we got to the pool on Friday and Olivia's cousins came and got her and took her to the water.. We stood in amazement!! She was having a blast and wasn't scared in the least bit. It was like we had never had any problems. She would say "Look mommy, I'm wimming!! We are so happy for her!! It was wonderful to see her having so much fun in the water. I, of course, ran along the edges of the pool in panic mode for an hour and a half worrying that she would go under and freak out... She didn't though. She swallowed some water every now and then, but she did so good. We are so very proud of her!!!!
