Daddy set our swimming pool up three nights ago and until tonight (Friday, July 16th, 2010) it wasn't warm enough to go for a real swim! Tonight however, it was awesome....maybe still a little chilly but warm enough to get in anyway, especially since it was sooooooo hot out today! I think it was over 150 degrees outside. I bet you could have fried an egg on the sidewalk! Anyway, mommy daddy and I decided to take a dip and it was awesome. It was my first "real" swimming experience and as you all know, I've loved anything to do with water for a very long time!
At first I wasn't too sure about this whole swimming thing but once mommy and daddy got me down in the water and I realized it wasn't as ice cold anymore and that I could touch the bottom, it was FUN!
Daddy and I had a wonderful, giggly time splashing around! In one of the videos you can even tell that daddy is having fun. The video starts out with his awesome laugh! The one that mommy likes...she says it is just him and that's how it use to laugh before he got sick! I think things are finally getting back to normal at the Gardner house! :)
Mommy got in on the fun too! We had a lot of fun pulling around this inflate-a-panda! I refused to sit in it but I loved pulling it around the pool by the string on the front of it! That was too funny!
"Me do it mommy! Me do it!" "MOM, I've got his under control!"
Playing in the water was sooooo awesome! I even laughed when mommy and daddy showed me how to put your face in the water and blow bubbles! Maybe after a few more swims I will be able to do that too!
Daddy and I are quite the pair! We even swam for over 30 minutes tonight! I hope we get to go again tomorrow! I'm sure we will....especially with the heat wave that has hit northwestern Kansas.
Well we've all had quite the day. Mommy and daddy worked all day, I went to daycare, then we had Great-Grandma Ruess's birthday party to go too and when we got home from that we went for a dip in our pool! My first real swimming experience! We swam for a long time and now we are all tuckered out! I had worked up an appetite from all that exercise in the pool so I had to enjoy some amal cackers (animal crackers) before I could even think about going to sleep! They were just what I needed. They hit the spot! After that, I was sooooo pooped, I almost didn't make it thru my milk and storytime! But I did! Now everyone is fast asleep! Good night all!
Tune in real soon (probably tomorrow night, LOL) for more pictures of The Justin Gardner clan swimming!
