Parker can SWIM!!!

with FLOATIES of course....
but if you know him, he hasn't loved the water!
All it took was to buy foaties and he is now a FISH!

(june 15)
He caught on so fast, his stubborn side comes out a lot... Before he just sat on the steps or held on to us, he didn't like that he couldn't touch the bottom. So really.. not sure why he is okay with foaties... but oh well, he loves it now! It is so fun to watch him swim. He goes all over the pool and at first it made me sad, cause he is growing up... but wow it is awesome that i have at least one swimmer!!!

proof that he CAN swim... oh wait... can't get the video to upload.. love this mac laptop but can't figure things out on it sometimes!
GOING HOME
today it was just Parker and I 
Dad stayed home while the twins napped 
It was nice i won't lie, i didn't have to chase them around!
update: as these were taken last month... Parker still loves the water! He loves going to the pool, he jumps in from the side (when he wants to that is) helps me with Adam and Abby.  He pulls Abby in her floaty.. pretty sure she'd jump right in with him, watching her at the pool yesterday! guess I'll have to get her floaties soon!
haven't managed to get pictures of them at the pool... not yet that is. I'm just trying to keep an eye on all 3! We spend lots of days at the pool, it makes me nervous to take them, it does every time, but they love going so we'll continue to do so as long as they are good or I have friends that will come a long to help:)
we are loving our summer nothing beats a nice day out at the pool!
minus the humidity...

He is so cute!! I need to go buy floaties. Channer is terrified of the water. Loves the sprinklers, but a big pool, he does the same as Paker ued to. Way to go Parker!
