Swimming and Shadows

Of course the cutest and funniest things happen when you don't have a camera or even when nobody else is around. Last night I had two different great experiences with Grant.

1. He now LOVES the pool and jumping in! Who would have thought the kid that wouldn't touch the water and then would only get in the water with me holding him would now love jumping off the side and even going under water. When he first started jumping I was careful he didn't go under but he kept saying - go down there and pointing - so i thought okay, that's what you want...so i let him go under a little and once above just said MORE! So, 1 hour later i said we had to take a break!! He is too cute in the water!!!

2. This next experienced happened in between the jumps in the pool. Because we went swimming in the evening and the sun was starting to go down he found his shadow!! I told him to wave at his shadow thinking he'd enjoy seeing his hand move....well, he really thought it was "Grant". When he would walk towards his shadow - of course it would go further away from him - so he just kept asking where Grant went, even got down and tickled "Grant".....it was so funny, I was laughing out loud!

Can't wait for you to come and share these two experiences with us! The water is 89 degrees, perfect, and waiting for visitors!!! Hope to see you soon!
