Happy Memorial Day! We've returned home from a trip to the lake and Peter was so exhausted he actually went to bed without finishing his supper. That, dear friends, is noteworthy. Our main goal this weekend was to familiarize Peter with the water. He loves bath time, but we were unsure how he would react to such a large tub. He was hesitant at first, as the water was a bit chillier than his bath, but he took to it soon once he realized that he could move around so much more than in a tub. Peter's first boat ride was also a hit. We're actually not sure if he realized he wasn't on dry land, but he did love to look over at the water. For all the nervous Nellies, we did have a life vest for him, and he wore it for a bit before it began causing fits. We'll be working on that...


the first swimming lesson

Floating is fun! (Note his hands - he was clapping.)
...but cupholders are more fun!
Watching water splash with Lee
Think he's comfortable?


Both boys needed to stretch their legs once we got home...

I love Peter's pictures! The boy gets more beautiful by the day. But with parents like his it is to be expected. I am glad to see Peter likes the water. You know, we have a boat in Houston and cousin Brennan would LOVE to take him on the boat. Just a thought....

Glad to see y'all are doing well.
