A Splashing Good Time

This is my 5th post tonight(!)so be sure to scroll down & check out the previous new posts...

I'm almost embarrassed to say that before yesterday, Mason had never been to a swimming pool. Me, of all people, former swim team member, 3 year Lifeguard, teacher of private swimming lessons, had never taken the poor child to the pool before. So now that the guilt is over with, here's some pictures of what a great time we had!

Before getting in the water, he had to try out the cool chairs

I took him in the 3-4 Ft water first & bobbed him around to get him more comfortable. He jumped into my arms twice from the side of the pool (he wasn't afraid) and then we spent the rest of the time over in the kiddie pool, which is just 1 FT deep. He "swam" all around that little pool. He didn't stay by me very much but of course I sat at the edge & kept my eye on him at all times. Mommy may have gotten a sunburn~but at least I kept Mason greased up like a little piggy with sunscreen! (I put it on myself too, just not enough or not in the right places!)

I love this pic of my pasty white boy!



My new fave pic! What a cool dude.
