Swimming, swimming in my swimming pool...

It was a PERFECT day for a swim; hot, sunny, birds chirping, a new 15$ pool, grandma smiling and watching her grandson about to go for his first swim, excitement, camera recharged and ready to go. The PERFECT day for making memories. I even remembered the hat, the sunscreen!

I'd would have loved to immortalize James' first encounter with a POOL as being swimmingly and wonderfully AMAZING, but that would be a bit of a, well, it would be a big fat lie! We were able to capture pre-swim photos as well as some post-swim freak out-comfort shots, but none of the terrible in-between period when James hit the water, which can be summed up by the following: 90% terror and 10% extreme terror.

Pre-swim excitement in grandma's arms...

Post-swim extreme comfort-cuddoodling.

Let's cross our fingers that next week's swim will be a little less terrifying and a little more fun!
