Boston Ditched the Floaties


We might have a mini Phelps on our hands. Ha ha. I love this picture. It makes me laugh. 


The first few times we went to the pool this year, Boston didn't like putting his head under the water, which was weird because he never minded before. Then one night when we were hanging out at the pool he just decided he didn't care anymore.  


We didn't really teach him how to swim, I guess it was just pretty natural to him once he decided he didn't mind his face under the water anymore. He does a really good job swimming to us with his head under the water. Now we need to teach him to swim with his head above the water. 


The first night he decided to start swimming, he didn't have any goggles, so we told him if he earned all his superheroes for a week we would buy him some. 


The next week was pretty awesome because every time he started misbehaving we reminded him about earning his goggles and it shaped him right up. He wanted those goggles so bad. 


One week later he was one happy swimmer with his new goggles. 


Here's a video for Boston's grandparents to watch!

Holy cow, Boston is a fish! That is so cool how he loves to swim. Start teaching him some of the strokes and he will soon be able to do triathlons with you guys!
