Pool Days

Over the weekend we conquered another first for James - swimming in the pool!  We are lucky enough to have not 1, but 3 pools in our neighborhood. The sad thing is that up until this weekend, we had not used a single one of them!  Between the blazing sun and our busy schedule, it never seemed like the right time.

The sun was shining, but the heat level was mild so we didn't roast.  Grandma and Grandpa Q. joined us and we all had a blast.  James seemed to really like the water - both in the baby pool and in the big pool.  I think he just thought it was a big, cold bath.  :)

Once this kid is old enough, he will take swimming lessons.  We want him to know how to swim and not fear the water.  And hey, if he wants to be the next Michael Phelps sans the pot smoking incident, I say go for it!
