Easton's first swimming lesson







Our friends Nate and Kassidi surprised us with a visit to my parents house while we were both in Utah for Christmas. Kassidi teaches childrens swimming lessons so we got Easton into the pool for the first time. He was not quite 2 months old. He loved it. He likes when we bathe him so it was no surprise and the water is over 90 degrees. He liked to float on his back. Kassidi said babies know how to not breathe water in when they are under water and we have seen her daughter go under water and instintively hold her breathe. It was very scary but I felt ok with her there. She told us what to do. Easton did well and came back up only a little confused. But that became too scary for Mom so Easton enjoyed the rest of the swim kicking his legs and floating on his back.

Yes - the walk was super fun! ;) Thought I would comment on the walk like everyone else... love the pictures! That is great that Easton loves the water. It took Lance a few trys to like the pool here because it was pretty cold. I think he would have enjoyed a 90 degree pool however! Let's cross our fingers lance gets better this week so we can hang out more!!!
