No Fear!!

Since Emery is completely unafraid of the water, we decided to test her bravery today. She has mastered using the steps to get into the water. And we have been working on jumping because she sometimes gets a little to close to the edge for me.

Video 1: Practicing the jump from the step.

Video 2: She was pretty confident after practicing and decided she was ready to jump pool side...by herself. Normally we catch her. Today she felt like she could do it on her own and kept trying to jump before I was ready. Finally, I let her. I know she seems a little shocked when she comes up for air but keep in mind that this was her 4th jump. She has no fear. This kid loves the water.

Of course, it isn't all about extreme jumping. She is quite content just relaxing in a gentle float...as am I.
