Last sunday

Last Sunday we took the girls back to the infamous "vacation house" for a swim. This time their cousins were there to help entertain and entertain they did. Apparently, since the last time we all swam together, Eitan and Adina discovered how to jump from the edge of the spa into an inner tube floating in the pool below.

They spent a good hour showing my very impressionable three year olds this dynamite new trick.
Sydney liked the look of the stunt and spent a good fifteen minutes trying to master it, climb out of the pool, onto the edge of the spa, wait for the ring to be placed properly, and jump. Repeat. She made it a few times but most of the time she missed or hooked her leg onto the tube and grabbed onto it as hard as she could. Every time she came up her smile was bigger and brighter than the time before. She is quite the daredevil, our little Sydney!
Lior was not as interested in the new trick but enjoyed the day by the pool with her cousins. Jordan is becoming more and more comfortable in the water. Now we have to teach her to lift her head out of the water to take breathes while she is swimming and she will be a pro. Akiva is always very content watching the kids play as long as he has his feet to play with.
