Pic taken on 7/9/2008I had wanted to let Yaoren go swimming after he reaches one year old. But Aiksoon was afraid that I will fall while taking care of Yaoren, cos Yaoren is super active and I am heavily pregnant now. So we agreed to buy a small rubber swimming pool for Yaoren instead and let him swim at the comfort of our home. We bought one that was suitable for children under 3. But when we reached home and opened up the box, we found that it was smaller than Yaoren's bath tub! He can't move about in the pool. It should have read: suitable for children under 1. :(
But Yaoren was so excited about the tub. He almost lunged towards the pool the minute he saw it. He likes to play with water you know. We gave him bath toys to play with in the pool. He was contented with playing in the small pool, and splashed the water repeatedly. He did not even mind Aiksoon using rubber duck to squirt water on his face. Yaoren enjoyed 'swimming' so much that we decided to include the activity every Sat/ Sun. :D
We have also recently bought a much bigger swimming pool for Yaoren recently. But since Yaoren is satisfied with his mini swimming pool, we have decided to keep it first till Adelaide is born and then both can splash about in the pool. hehe
