Lena and her cousin Aidan (my cousin's son, second cousin once removed?) decided they would like to go swimming for the first time. The pool was blown up and filled and left to bask in the sun to get warm. Apparently it was not long enough. When we tried to put them in the water, they both cried because it was too cold. We let out some of the water and added warm water until it was not so cold. Even then the kids were not sure that they liked it. Turns out that we filled it too high and the buoyancy was making them nervous and hard for them to keep their balance. Lena slipped and fell under a couple of times until we let a lot of water out and they could keep their balance better. Then they liked it.

Here is Lena in her swimmy suit.

Lena is testing out water to make sure she likes it.

She acclamated pretty fast and seemed to like it right away.

We rescued her from slipping under.
