Fun in the sun...

This afternoon we took Griffin to the Ashton neighborhood pool. We are very lucky to have this amenity available for our use. We have use of the pool without having to deal with the upkeep and maintenance. The pool is really nice and pretty and not usually very crowded. We did not use the pool as much as we would have liked to this summer because of Griffin's constant ear infections. Griffin is not totally crazy about the pool. This is usually how it goes: everyone in the pool= Griffin running on the pool deck. Everyone on the pool deck= Griffin jumping into the pool. This afternoon I dug deep to recall some of my old swimming lesson instructor techniques. Once we had him in the water I got him to relax and he floated around on his back and belly. I think he really liked it. We planned to enroll him in lessons this year, but held off due to the ears. Next summer he will be swimming like a little fishie!!
