8/365: Swimming

We've started going on family swimming trips in the evening. The family pool at the Aquatic Center is a very friendly 5 feet deep at its deepest point, and we've found out it's tons of fun to bring all three of us there at once. (As opposed to mildly frazzling at best when it's one parent and one toddler!)

With two parents there, we managed to finally convince Jack that it's okay to wear a floatie, and two visits later he is swimming on his own! He can now float and kick on his own and go eeeeever so slowly from one parent to the other. :)

Nothing like swimming during cool weather.... The pool was nearly empty and we got to spend 45 minutes paddling wherever we wanted, doing whatever we wanted. We OWNED the stairs (Jack's current favorite, in keeping with his fondness for activities he can do "by y'self") and got to play with any of the toys we wanted!

Still waiting on the camera's new memory card. If it were here, I could post a picture of the mountain of food Jack is eating now that we're back at home!
