Polar Bear Swim

We went to Smith Mountain Lake with Andrew's family for Memorial Day Weekend. Mimi and Papa have a house, boat and jet ski there, and we're there a lot during the summer (who wouldn't be?). The water was FREEZING this past weekend - we're talking people-skiing-in-wet-suits cold. You'd think a 22-pound baby would be deterred from those temperatures. But, not Mia (or her crazy cousins). She braved the water all three days, splashing and playing until her lips were blue and her whole body was shaking (and mommy couldn't take watching her anymore, which was about 10 minutes at a time). Seeing how much she loves the water, I'm really looking forward to this summer with her. We joined our community pool and have a few trips planned to the beach. Should be so much fun.
