Adalyn was a FISH in the pool!! That girls loves to swim. At 2 1/2, started swimming without her floaties on. I know, it sounds crazy when I type it but it was absolutely WILD to watch her. She asked my mom if she could swim to the bottom and pick up her goggles so my mom pushed her down, she grabbed them, then came right back up. She then started swimming to us from the stairs. I posted a video of her doing it on my facebook page and here's where
