Water baby

Note: A post detailing our recent trip to Boston by Anthony is forthcoming.

It's no secret that I love the pool. Last summer when I was getting big and pregnant I would visit our apartment's pool and daydream about taking our baby to the pool this summer and Anthony would warn me to not get my hopes up, not all babies love water. All winter I've been hopefully optimistic due to the fact that Will loves bathtime. "But bath water is warm," TJ would warn, so I'd pour a little cold water on Will to see how he'd handle it.

For the most part, he handled it just fine, but there was no way of knowing for sure whether he would like the pool or not.

Well, summer and the day of reckoning arrived. Will and I were so pleased to prove his doubting poppa wrong--he LOVES water!

There were NO tears. He was a little unsure at first. But once he got comfortable, life was good.

He loves being pulled through the water.

Check out that smile!

Now if only it will stop raining we can put our pool pass to use. Any of your Overland Park residents out there, we have a pool pass, so let us know if you want to hit up the pool!

1. He clearly likes the water. In your face Anthony!

2. Where did you get that bathing suit? I love it.

3. Sadie loved the pool when we went in March but then when I took her in April she cried most of the time. I am just hoping it was because it was close to her bedtime. And I kept dunking her under the water.

Wish we could all go to the pool together!

I hope Noah & Will get to swim together lots this summer. It's so funny to see them trying to figure it all out.
