AW - PIP - DS Swimming

Ciarrai

Finally got a pic of DS underwater.  He's "swimming" (gliding) from me to DH in the pool.  He usually wears swimmies but we were trying to work on him actually swimming (which he's doing great at considering he's a year-and-a-half) and my niece is here and took the pic.  Love it!

 

And here's him jumping off the edge with his swimmies on: (cheese)

DS wasn't too thrilled about it at the beginning of the summer.  When we first opened the pool, all he wanted to do was play on the stairs.  He's grown a ton just watching the girls and having the pool in the backyard.  We're in it almost every day and often a few times a day.  He's gotten to the point where he can "swim" with his swimmies on and get around.  He also half fell off the stairs a few days ago without them on and he was basically kicking and mostly swimming.  He even got himself turned around and back towards the stair before DH or I got to him (15 seconds later).  He's getting there.  Of course, we have to watch him very very carefully because he is so comfortable around the water, but he loves it.
