The backyard pool is finally open! It's finally warm enough!
Last year Isaac refused to get in the pool and preferred to walk around while everyone else swam. Even this summer at another pool he did the same. Luckily Taylor is patient and persuasive and was able to coax Isaac into the pool. This is his attempt at getting him to "jump" in. Cracks me up because if they were on dry ground and Isaac was 10 feet in the air he'd not hesitate to jump to Taylor even if he was several feet away. But not in water!
Isaac finally agreed to ride in a float but only for a few minutes and then only stayed in the water if he was on Taylor's back. Progress at least though. We'll take it. At least he's IN the water.
Ethan is on the verge of being a good independent swimmer. He can make it across the pool solo but he looks more like he's drowning than swimming. Almost there though!
And so proud to show off his floating and swimming skills.
Miles is easy in and out of water. He's the perfect baby what can I say? He sat contently in his float for almost an hour. He let Taylor dunk him and he held his breath on his own and didn't even sputter when he came up for air. No fussing or complaining! He laughed and giggled and had this grin on his face the whole time.
What a good bunch of boys I have!
