Funny Pool story for ya...

We finally went to the Scera pool yesterday for the first time this year (opening day... we love that place). The kids did so well! Brynley would hold on to my fingers in water about chest high. She'd jump up and down a few times then dunk herself, look around for a while underwater and pop back up laughing. It was awesome! I was so proud of her.

Caleb did great, too. At the end of last summer he would count to three then go under the water and float and look around. Yesterday he did that and then started kicking. Pretty soon he was using his arms too and full on swimming! I was so proud of him! He said the funniest thing though. After a while he would just kick once and then float. So Brandon's mom and I said "Caleb count four kicks. Try to kick four times and then you can stop", trying to get him to kick more. He tried once then stopped and came up cracking up laughing. He did it two more times and was dying laughing. We were like, "what's so funny?" And he goes "I can't talk under there." We died laughing. He doesn't know how to count in his head so he was trying to count his kicks out loud! Then he tried again and we could here "one, (mixed with bubbles), two..." Brandon's mom and I were laughing so hard and he goes "what's so funny? You try talking under there!" It was so hilarious!
