Well, this summer has been HOT! Seems like all around the country the temperatures are breaking records. So... we decided to beat the heat and swim! I found a baby pool at Target, hoping Austin would like it. Daddy was at work the day we went swimming, but Em came over to take pictures. Austin wasn't too keen on the swimming, I think because the water was too cold. He stood in the water, and stared at it intently, but did not want to sit down, or stand in it longer than 2 minutes. Oh well.
The very first swim (couldn't rotate it, sorry!)
Enthralled by the water, but not too sure yet
Yea, I don't think I like this mom...
Oh wait, I DO like it!!
Cuddling with Mommy after swimming
Happy boy!
That was on the 9th of July, but, on the 14th of July, Ryan's brother (Em's brother-in-law) hosted a pool party. We're talking an in-ground BIG pool! So, to prep for Austin's first BIG swim, I found a baby floater and we were set! The water was a bit cool, so I wasn't sure Austin would like it. But, he LOVED it!! We didn't get any pictures of him in the floater, but here are some of the highlights.
Started with dangling the feet
Then we sat in the water
Then we laid in it

Overall successful swimming experiences. We plan on many more this summer!
