Well, after I got my haircut last friday we went swimming and I used a bathing suit that has little inflatable things tucked in it and so I did not have to use an innertube to go in the big pool! I was nervous but got the hang of it so quickly. Mom was so excited to see me "swimming" without any help. I swam around her - did not let her get too far from me, but really loved being free to swim without a tube around me. Thanks Josh for the hand-me-down bathing suit. Since then we have been to the pool a few times and now I am really getting the hang of swimming with this suit. I swam all the way across the pool the long way without touching mom! And I am jumping off the edge of the pool into the water! It is so cool. Now mama feels much more comfortable taking us to the pool by herself, and the rule of only getting in the baby pool when there is only her to watch us has been eliminated - I just have to be wearing this new bathing suit.
Izaac is moving so fast these days, and wanting to play with whatever I am playing with. I usually push him in the face to get him to back off, but then I get a time out. He just doesn't listen to me very well. Yesterday he crawled all the way up the stairs for the first time. He did it twice! He was only able to make it up 2 or 3 steps before, and there are about 12-14 steps. Mom and dad got the gate up pretty quick.
Talk to you later......
