Good Luck with the new baby Kbaby.
Well, had a big day today I took both girls swimming all by myself and we all survived
Dd1 is in group swimming lessons but because the instructor isn't in the water with her she's not very confident. I spoke to a friend who's dd goes to one to one classes and she gave me the teachers number so today dd1 had her first one to one lesson. It's not cheap I can tell you at £7 for half and hour, yes you read that right HALF an hour. Plus I have to pay for dd to go in for a swim so I decided that I'd bite the bullet and go in as well with dd2. Bought her the cutest little swimsuit from Asda this morning then got her one of those inflatable chair things.
So dd1 had her lesson while I sat in the shallows with dd2 in her chair, she loved it she was watching all the other kids splashing about and was kicking her legs so she was very happy. Tried to have a drink of the water as well but decided that it wasn't very nice.
There is a baby pool with snakes that spit out water and little slides and things. We had a little walk about in there, about an inch of water in that part. She loved the snakes with the sprays of water. It was great fun much better than when we first took dd1 swimming as a baby when she screamed the whole time. I think dd2 might be the water baby. Dd1 got on very well in her lesson as well, the teacher says she just needs to build up her confidence as she's very reluctant to put her head under the water. She got goggles today so she wasn't as bad as she usually is but still not keen on the unknown qualities of putting her head under the water.
Sorry to hear about your job spots.
Egypt, I didn't know you were going to Egypt, sounds exciting.
