Mark and I were anxious to take Will to the pool - he loves his bath...so we've been figuring that he'll love the pool. Over Memorial Day weekend, Mark swam with his neice and nephew in Ozark. Will and I stood by the edge of the pool to watch. As Mark would lift Trenton into the air and drop him into the water, Will would cry in terror and turn his head. I had to walk away to calm him down. We couldn't figure out if he was scared that Mark was in the water, the sound of the splash, Trenton screaming or what??? So we didn't really know what to expect we took him to the pool for him to swim.
Last Saturday we headed to the pool, all things baby pool in tow! A $20 float with a shade on it, sunscreen, swim diapers and baby! At the pool entrance they informed us that we couldn't bring in the float - it wasn't coast guard approved...we don't live on the coast, nor were we on the beach - go figure. Oh well, we'll save the float for the lake!
He loved it! It even started to rain and he didn't mind that. So, still not sure what he was so scared about the weekend before, but sure glad he likes the water...more swim excursions to come!
