Swimmer!!!

Connor has always been a water boy. He holds no fear when it comes to jumping right in! With the pool water finally warm again, I knew it was time to work on swimming lessons. Between Papa & I, we've made some major progress in the past two days already! Connor went from swallowing water (he likes to swim with his mouth wide open) and not kicking his feet...to slipping on some arm swimmies, kicking those legs like he's running a marathon, and puckering his lips like a fish to keep the water out! I was easily the proudest Mom on the planet yesterday when Connor was swimming on his own (...with the assistance of swimmies, of course).

He was leaping into the pool, going under, then swimming to me, Papa, or the side of the pool to climb out. He was so proud of himself! It was a very exciting day!






It was also a very exciting day, because it was a celebration for this awesome lady in our lives...


Happy 83rd Birthday Grandma (aka G.G.) !!!
