After watching her big brothers swim around for a while,

Ruthie decided that in the water was where she wanted to be. As soon as her feet hit the water, she began kicking and squealing in delight.

Notice that in nearly every picture, she is not looking at the camera, but off to the right of the camera. That’s because Peter was off to the right of the camera, and Ruthie wanted Peter to notice how much fun she was having.

Splash,

Kick,

Investigate the water,

and formally announce how much she loves the water.
