Kick, Kick, Kick!!

There was a pool at the campground where we stayed and Owen absolutely loved it. We visited the pool twice each day. It was kinda cold when you first got in and Owen would scream (not cry, just scream)! But as soon as we were in and used to the water it was a lot of fun! We bought Owen some swimmies because we had noticed before we left on vacation when we were swimming at Tobie and Dave's that Owen would rather be in the water than in his raft. He did very well in the water. He would kick and spash. He would lay his head back to float on his back. He would put his face in the water, but still didn't understand that you need to shut your mouth if you are going to put your face in the water! We were even able to let him go and float on his own for a few seconds. He was sorta able to swim from Mommy to Daddy or Daddy to Mommy, but of course we were not that far away! On one trip to the pool Gavin counted 30 seconds that Owen was able to stay afloat without any help.
