Fish

Liam is a fish…he LOVES the water and has NO FEAR when it comes to water.  He just “dives” right in.  I have to keep an eagle eye on him to be sure he doesn’t get in over his head…(I’m cracking myself up here…)  Last week we went to the local pool.  It was fun—and exhausting.  Thankfully Em and Jason are old enough to help me out sometimes and also have fun on their own.  Liam loved the slide.  He’ll love it even more when he’s tall enough to go down on his own.  I was at the store the other day and noticed a little pool on clearance…so I got it for the backyard.  As soon as I brought it home Liam started asking me, “when can I swim in my big pool?”  So, we filled it up and he had  a blast jumping in and splashing, then hopping out to warm up and then starting all over again.  I’m bummed I didn’t get any pictures of him jumping it because it was great to watch.    I love that he’s so excited about his “big pool” even though it isn’t really big at all…at least not compared to some of the other pools out there but it’s big to him and that’s what matters.
