Hot-tubbing

One of the highlights of our vacation was seeing how Ellie reacted to the hot tub. It was so amazing to see her grin as we lowered her into the hot water. She smiled the whole time she was in there!

It was also very relaxing for her to be in the hot tub. Her tight legs relaxed, her heel cords relaxed, her body became comfortable and loose. I think it was very therapeutic for her to be in the water. I moved her legs back and forth and she was able to feel all the sensations. I'm sure she enjoyed feeling weightless and relaxed.

Now I just need to figure out how to get a hot tub for her at the house! ;)

    You know where we live.
    You are welcome ANYTIME.
    I'll attempt to keep the tub clean and ready for Ellie.

    The boys can hang with me and the tribe!

    OK WCSG 91.3 is giving away a hot tub--we just need to rig the drawing so that you guys win. If I had better luck I would try to enter for you-but really I never win anything :)

    Wow! That is amazing. Ellie's smile (and all those great expressions) light up my heart. Thanks for sharing them! They bring a smile to my face on a dark afternoon.

    Love that smile. What about a jetted tub for her at home? Olivia loves water too. I notice how much better Olivia does in the pool with her movement. Do you think it's freeing for them? Hugs...

    I would say that smile says she is enjoying the moment! Sounds like a great place to take a family for a get-away.I'll be listening to hear if you get the hot-tub!
