She floats!

So day 1, week 2 of ISR lessons, and Delanah was floating by herself today!!! My big girl! Cindy, our instructor, seemed quite pleased and I was just in awe. Here is a not even 9 month old baby, and she was able to take herself from vertical to float, without assistance!!!!! This is the most amazing program and I am going to tell as many moms and dads about it as possible. It is SO important for kids to know how to float, you never know when a water accident may happen! We have a new lesson time this week and when we got there I saw another baby! His lesson was already over, but I was beginning to wonder if Delanah was the youngest student....and here before we got started I thought we were waiting too long!
Tomorrow G-pa is coming up to watch Delanah in action. I need to make sure she gets her afternoon nap in this time. today we were late getting up, late in morning nap and she fell asleep on the way there and woke up tired and grumpy and just complained through the entire lesson. She was doing so well last week! After the lesson we stopped at the grocery store to get what we needed for the week...we were both so tired! I am LOVING her cart cover! We had been shopping for one here and couldn't find one less than $30 (and those were the ugly ones) but when we were in Calgary I found one I loved and it was cheap! Woo-hoo! Delanah absolutely adores riding in the cart...smiles and giggles all around! We raced down one aisle and she really enjoyed that :) So we got what we needed, came home, stripped her down for dinner and had our chicken and veggies. She seemed to really want to play with her sippy cup for the most part. She has learned how to get water out of it (not by drinking) and drenched not only her tray, but her bib as well...ahhhh...my talented little girl :) Bath time was early and short and she was soon in bed. I seriously need to get myself to bed as well.
Oooh, so I have really been working on the "milk" sign for her and tonight when she was nursing she was doing it! Could have been a fluke, we'll have to see, but I'd like to think she's just that smart!
