This week Emilia reached the double digits—that’s right, she’s now 10 months old. Today she started swim lessons with grandma. Agustin and I were in favor of taking her to the pool and teaching her ourselves (after all, we both spent years competing with swim and water polo teams, as well as lifeguarding, not to mention that I also taught swim lessons in college). But we told grandma she was more than welcome to spend her money if she wanted to have this special bonding time with Emilia. Emilia cried through most of the first lesson, but we assume she’ll enjoy it more in the future since she has enjoyed our informal visits to the pool. It wouldn’t hurt if she put on a few more pounds for insulation.
Here are a few of my favorite pictures from this past week. In this first one, Emilia is checking to see if the bathroom is occupied. In the second one, she’s apparently practicing her gymnastic skills (a new favorite pose) while waiting her turn.

Grandma bought Emilia her first pumpkin, and only six weeks before Halloween!
