Pool Friday, Take Two

What a difference one week makes!

We returned to the pool for our second Friday morning Parent & Tot time, and Connor was a completely different kid.

He was excited to go all morning.

When we were leaving the locker room he said, "There's the pool door. This is going to be so much fun!"

This is a kid who is happy to be at the pool.

He walked right into the water up to his knees. We started playing with his new ball. He walked in up to his waist. He was all smiles. He kept saying, "This is so much fun."

I asked him if he wanted to kick his feet and swim. He handed me the ball and walked in up to his armpits, and started paddling his arms. He kept saying, "I'm swimming, I'm swimming."

We stayed in the pool the entire time, and he never asked to get out once. In fact, we were next to last in getting out of the water.

He even got splashed in the face a few times, but it didn't bother him. I was totally amazed!

He had a blast. I was so happy and proud that I almost cried. And Lex fell asleep about 10 minutes after we got in the water, warm and snuggled in our pool sling.

Matching sharks!
