Ryan has always been a water baby. He loved his baths when he was a baby, and still does now. If we let him, he would probably spend all day in there playing with his toys. And as for the pool, trying to get him out after a swim is always a struggle. However, you wouldn't have thought so if you'd seen his reaction the first time we put him in the swimming pool!
Shad's been teaching Ryan to snorkle recently. He started off by giving him the mask in the bathtub, then when Ryan got comfortable with that, we let him use the snorkle. A couple of weeks ago we took him down to the swimming pool and let him put on the full gear. After the initial few mouthfuls of water, he's now really good at it. And he absolutely loves it. As soon as we get into the pool, he's off to find treasures under water!
Here he is in action!
I'll have to try the same with Hayden this coming summer. As for Teagan, her affinity to water is like my affinity to wine & beer!
ReplyDeleteHee hee, I can just picture T giggling and fooling around in the water! Starting in the bathtub was a good idea.
ReplyDeleteI see someone got some underwater camera gear...
