Swimming with Friends

This morning we went swimming with Emily's boyfriend from school - Korrigan. Emily had a great time. She wore Korrigan's extra life jacket and jumped off the side of the pool a couple of times for me to catch her. She still doesn't dig going under water but she really enjoyed watching Korrigan swim all over the pool by himself. He even went off the diving board and swam all the way back to the shallow end while his mom was tending to his little brother . . . wow! We were impressed:

This picture cracks me up. She wouldn't go under water but she had to be just like Korrigan and wear some goggles. It was too funny:
When we got ready to leave Emily and Korrigan hugged each other and then Emily said, "I want to give him a kiss" and kissed him right on the lips! Crazy girl!


In other news, here is a new outfit I made for Emily. Back in April, I went to a sewing class with my sister and made this dress. The person who taught the class had modified the pattern and so we went mainly off of what she told us to do . . . so replicating this top took me a while because I tried to remember what we did. So after several weeks of taking this to my sewing classes for help . . . I finished it! I made the capri pants to go with them. When I put this on Emily yesterday she said she didn't want to wear it but wanted to wear a t-shirt and shorts : ( I'm not ready for her to be opinionated about her clothing yet!
