Lovin' the water

This summer has been so great...this is the first time in three years that I have had a tan...and I wish that I was exaggerating. Last summer the boys were a bit fearful of the water and I made it my mission and goal this year to get them to enjoy the water and learn to swim a bit. They are both improving and enjoying it more each time. This last weekend we were able to go swimming with my cousin, Alyssa, and with, Lee and Becca. We had such a good time together and they all helped with the boys in the water. Lee was super Uncle and the boys loved watching him do all sorts of tricks off the diving board and had so much fun when he would throw them up in the air and then catch them. Jett also watched the movie, Ice Age, for the first time. Giggled through the whole thing. He thought it was hilarious! The next day I would catch him laughing and I would ask him what was so funny and he would talk about one of the scenes that made him laugh:) Ah, to view life as a toddler full of life:)

Love the video! Love Brayden's giggle! And love it when he comes to the camera & says "Mommy!" We have many videos ending like that!

I feel your pain on the water issue. My kids are not big fans, but I was bound and determined to make them like it. The lake is *okay*, but pools, forget it. Gavin just wears a life jacket and runs around throwing stuff in the whole time :)

BTW, I made your easy casserole, a HUGE hit in our house hold! A new fav for sure!!!
