Water Aerobics

I am having a very fun semester with a stress relieving class of water aerobics.  It is a very fun way to exercise!  It is also the only exercise class recommended for pregnant women.  There are 5 in my class all at different stages in their pregnancy and all very much entertaining (I know my time will come when I waddle and can't bend over so I feel safe saying this).  Yesterday I enjoyed watching 3 of them race against each other in a relay! The object of the relay was to swim across the width of the pool holding a 1/2 cup measuring cup filled with water and poor the water into a bowl on the other side.  Not spilling the water is the hard part.  It was very funny!  They had the benefit of a noodle to help them float which I think was very helpful.  It was interesting to see the competitiveness come out as three very far along pregnant women struggled across the pool! I guess it is something you may have had to be there for.  Anyhow I enjoy their good natured attitude about their limitations and always being last to get done (Not to mention how cute they look in their swimsuits).  My time will come but for now I just have to laugh...
