Too Much Swimming???

Slip N' Slide fun at Mimi and Papa's



Cautious little one started on Daddy's back until he got comfortable





Mia and Marisa came over to swim and play! Pax had fun driving them around in his Gator!



Reagan and Liam came to swim one day! They had fun jumping in together!



Pax, Reagan, and Liam getting ready to enjoy lunch together

We went to their neighborhood pool one day and had a blast!




I think so! I think our little fish has officially spent too much time in the water. He has his first (of many, I'm sure) case of swimmer's ear. We took him to the doctor Saturday, and he said that his left ear looked pretty bad. He prescribed an antibiotic for 7 days, and required ear plugs for any swimming.


These pictures are from all the swim dates and swimming that we've done this week! We've been busy, but have had a blast! Even if it did lead to swimmer's ear! We know now to use some ear drops anytime Pax goes swimming.



On a positive note, since he's been in the water so much this week, he's come SOOOO far with his swimming! After watching Reagan swim around like a fish, Pax decided that he wanted to, and could, do the same thing. Now he is jumping off in the deep end, treading water, and then swimming to the side. He doesn't even reach out for a hand or anything! In fact, Adam got him to swim the whole length of the pool a couple times one day. Pax puts his face in and then swims and comes up for a breath when he needs it! I can't believe how well he's swimming!! Yay, Pax!!
