Maddie's First Olympics

Happy Olympics Day!

Maybe Maddie will be an athlete at the 2024 or 2028 games ? Wow that seems far away!

Swimming


We took Maddie next door to swim and she had a lot of fun. From a water safety perspective, Maddie unfortunately has no fear and just plunges right into deep water, with or without her floaties . She accidently fell into the pool twice after bumping into a patio column (she was fine both times).


On the positive side, Maddie is making great progress in holding her breath when she goes underwater and she can float around wearing her floaties (aka water wings) without assistance. She made great progress in actually moving around too, spinning around and paddling toward something she wants.
