Alicia Keys & Baby Egypt Swimming in Miami

Yesterday I mentioned how much I love swimming with my son, and it looks like new mommy Alicia Keys feels the same way. Here she is (looking mighty fabulous in that teeny bikini I might add) taking a dip with her ADORABLE son Egypt. The two splashed around in a pool in Miami and it looks like they had a blast. It's so nice to see a celebrity mama spending quality time (and smooches) with her baby sans a nanny/entourage. And how cute is Egypt in those Burberry swim trunks?? Love it!

Pool Time

These past few days it's been scorching hot around the country. Yesterday I took my son to a local pool and we splashed around for a couple of hours. He is only 6months and my little booboo loves the water! Ki had a lot of fun in the baby pool, and when I got bored I took him into the big pool. He loves to be dunked (his face is priceless when he comes back up), sprayed in the face and especially loves splashing and I couldn't be happier. I love the water myself, and glad he loves the water as much as I do. I have brought him in the shower with me since he was two weeks old, so I am guessing that's why he doesn't mind his face getting wet. As mentioned on Lilsugar, "Drowning is the second leading cause of death for children under 19 years old. Teaching your tot to swim as early as possible can increase their confidence in the pool and reduce their chances of drowning". I can't wait to get Kion into some swimming lessons, seeing him jump into the pool and propelling himself across the water.

I will definitely be visiting the pool quite often in the next few weeks, it doesn't seem like this heat is gonna cool down any time soon! How early did you bring your baby into the water? Did they love it or hate it? Share your thoughts with us!

Pool Party!

The sun was blazin’ today in Montreal, so we decided to take advantage of the heat, and let our sons splash around in a baby pool for the first time, and splash they did!

First they tested the waters, getting comfortable as they adjusted to this new experience. It’s just like a bath, outside! 

Before we knew it, they were playing, splashing and just having a wonderful time! Plus, they looked way too cute in their matching Old Navy swim suits.

 

 

After, they dried up in the sun, while they relaxed and reflected on a fun filled day. Ready to eat and nap now!

It’s such a pleasure to spend beautiful days like today, out in the sun and fresh air, with our sons, experiencing things for the first time. What a wonderful feeling!
