Last Sunday, we took Madeline to the community pool for the first time. To capture this *first*, I bought one of those water-proof disaposable cameras, and we had a blast taking photos of Madeline happily standing in the kiddie pool, splashing away at the puddles on the ledge, and laughing as the waves from the main pool crashed over her feet. I took the camera in to London Drugs for developing, and was kind of sad to see that our memories came out totally dark and grainy. There was a note tucked in the photos saying "you didn't use a flash". Duh. Did the camera that you took the film out of have a flash, Mr. Photo Technician?
Thinking about taking one of our 35 mm cameras to the pool next time ...
Hello Madeline, my name is Matthew and I'm 2 months old. I really like reading about you on your blog. I hope you don't mind but I added you to my favourites. Please come and visit my blog sometime! Love, Matthew x

Neat that Madeline enjoys the pool. Benjamin is indifferent to the pool and seems terrified of the ocean... :(

So great to hear you loved the pool Madeline! So sad to hear about the water camera :( Dan took some great pictures without the water camera, just our digital.. but the water camera should have been better than that I suspect. From the one that I have used they turned out when we were in the ocean....
