Swimmin'

 This boy has really taken off in swimming. He is all over the shallow end swimming and even diving down to the bottom of the pool.  Today he even did three flips in a row underwater. We're so proud of our boy
 His goggles were also the envy of all the little boys today.  The girls were a little afraid of Colin.  Maybe thats why the boys kept begging for a turn with the goggles :) 
Joel has been a handful at the pool.  He thinks he should be able to swim like Colin and has just walked right into the pool several times. He likes to "cannon ball" and will jump whether you are ready or not.  He doesn't want you to hold him and you have to try to make him think he's swimming on his own.  He is also too cool for water wings or an inner tube.  Bubba doesn't need one so neither should he.
But he's so stinkin cute in his goggles that I just want to eat him up. 
I was also going to take a video of Joel swimming in the baby pool but my battery died.  He tries to do just what Bubba does and is so cute kicking and splashing.

We use a floating swimsuit for Ashley (22 month old), cuz she is the same way as Joel. Can't take my eyes off of her cuz she is mostly fearless.
