As everyone knows, it has been hot, hot, hot! And while that may not be the best weather for long walks in the stroller and running around at the playground, it's great weather for other activities. One of those is swimming, of course. We've been working with Cal a little at a time to get over his fear of the pool. Today was very successful. When we first arrived, we were told we had to wait a bit for the baby pool because of chemicals. So, we went over to the main pool. Cal sat on the side dangling his feet in the water. But, he kept pointing over to the kiddie pool and wanting to go over, which is a great sign. He also got in the water with me without the usual crying and shaking. He had to be distracted by dad with toys but all in all a good outing. Then, we moved over to the kiddie pool. He is still way more comfortable just walking around rather than sitting in the water but we're happy for him to play and have fun.
