My Little Fish!

So, we've been gone for a while... sorry about that. But, we've been having so much summer-time fun - including a trip to the beach in Florida! The best part about this was that Micah started swimming. All. By. Himself. Seriously. He would stand on a ledge in the pool, I would count to three and say, "Big kicks!" and he would launch himself, face under, towards me with his arms and legs going. It was about the cutest thing ever. And, I'm a swimmer, so this mom was proud! Pictures? Yep!

Isn't that the cutest? I love it. It's a good thing I love it because he made me catch him for almost an hour straight. I would make him take breaks to take big breaths and he would start stomping his feet - ready to go again. I think we have a future swimmer in the family? :)

That's all for now - but I will leave you with this lovely image from our trip...

hahahaha!

  1. That's awesome. Noah wants nothing to do with going under the water-or being let go in the water. I need to get him into some swim lessons.

    Can't wait to hear about your trip. If the weather's nice, lets get together Friday the 10th.

  8. Thats's so awesome! Have you done swimming lessons with him a all? Or is he just a natural?! I've got Malak in a class and I'm proud to say he is blowing bubbles now... his mouth might not be in the water yet, but he is blowing! ;)
