Teagan and I started attending a parent/child swim class with several of our friends this month, and it has been quite a challenge! Of the first three classes, Teagan cried the entire class twice, and then last week she only cried half the class. Despite her protests during swim class, her favorite thing to play with her dolls is "swim class baby." She loves for me to demonstrate with her dolls all the things we do in swim class. Teagan tells the baby "elbow, elbow, tummy, knee, knee" when helping her climb up onto the pretend pool edge and then we pretend to throw toys in the water so we can hold our breath and have baby go retrieve the toys under water. She also loves to sing all the songs that we do during the swim class. I'm hoping with all this swimming play that we will have a good class next week with minimal crying.
Teagan has really turned into a non-stop talker! She often wakes up talking before she even opens her eyes, and continues to chatter until she falls asleep! She amazes me with her ability to describe what is happening and what people are doing. I walked by her in her room and said "What are you doing T?" Her answer, "yawning." I guess she was feeling tired!
