Aspen can Swim
Many of asked how can Aspen swim. Well here is a clip of her swimming. I drop her to the bottom of the pool and she kicks up. Also whenever we get close to the steps she automatically drops her head down and takes off. I have never seen a baby love the water as much as she does. It is so funny.
How I taught her: I watched a bunch of YouTube videos. We started dunking her as a baby in the tub. Than we taught her how to blow bubbles. Next we taught her how to keep her head up in the pool, than how to float all by herself. Once she caught onto that we started dropping her to the bottom of the pool and letting her kick herself up. She taught herself how to swim to the stairs based off everything else we have taught her.

WOW, Tiff!! That is amazing! I was seriously holding my breath every time she was under water! LOL! I've heard of that technique before and if I was around water a lot, I would do it for sure. Great job, cutie Aspen!!
Addi loves doing that also. Except Lance actually dives her to the bottom, drives me crazy to watch it but she loves it.
Wow that is pretty cool. Good job Aspen.

Wow. THe boys and I watched together and we were all amazed. Is she talking in the film too, or was that someone else?
