Last weekend, we took Gwen to the lake to test out her swimsuit and actually play in the water for the first time (highly supervised of course, for any family members cringing out there). It appears that she is going to be a water baby, complete with tears whenever we tried to take her out of the water to dry off and hang out in her diaper again. John and Marisa were there too and also took to the lake to cool off. They really aren't arguing in the picture...it's merely John convincing his wife that cold water is a really good idea and easier once it passes the waist. As mentioned on their blog, Anne even put more than a toe in (finally) but it was all in the name of the food reward at the end. Speaking of food rewards, the fishing was quite good and everyone worked hard on their best "trophy photo" poses...elbox bent, fish curved in front and raised slightly to make it look as big as possible against the landscape behind (muscle flexing and grinning optional). All of us like to think it works rather well but will be disgusted when we catch a record-holder and nobody believes us on the the real scale and size!
