No Fear

We have had a great summer day. We started off with watching cartoons in bed with Reid. I cooked breakfast while Reid and his daddy spent some time together. Reid always thinks it is a treat when he can get in bed with us. We had breakfast in bed and then got ready to go and spend some time at the pool. It was a perfect morning.

We went to Victoria's sisters house and swam in their pool today and yesterday. I didn't have my camera or video yesterday, but I knew after watching him yesterday I had to take it today.

Reid is now swimming with his arm floaties and not his ring and he is going down the slide like he has no fear in the world. He will slide down that slide the whole time and go under like he is a big boy. The water does not bother him at all. He stays in the water the whole time. He loves it. He doesn't mind going under and doesn't even get choked up. I was so proud for his daddy to see him swim today. I had tried the arm floaties at the beginning of the summer and it made me too nervous, but yesterday I tried them again and he did great. I love that he can slide down the slide, go under and then swim over to the ladder to do it all over again.

Claire is still not a fan of the water. She would rather sit on the side and watch. She is Reid's biggest cheerleader. She will just have to be our bathing beauty. She is naturally tanned and is so pretty. You can see from the video below she did not love the slide.

We had a great day and now Reid is taking a great nap. Enjoy the pictures and video from today. I promised his Mimi I would record our day at the pool.

  1. Gosh, we had soooo much fun today. I love how Reid absolutely thrives when in the water. You definitely see a different Reid when he is at the pool. I pray that Claire will come to love it like Reid does.
    The pictures and videos are great. Thanks for sharing.
