No Fear

July 22, 2008

While Big Daddy was here we went to his friends pool so Eli good show off his swimming skills.  They have a diving board and Eli had no fear.  He was jumping over and over…….that is until he attempted to dive.  He saw me and Nathan diving and flipping off of the board and decided he would, too.  The first couple of times he would say “I dive” and then just do a normal jump off.  Then he decided he needed to lean into it and did a belly flop, but not too bad.  The next time he did a belly flop and it was pretty bad.  After that he had a little fear of the diving board, but was okay with jumping off of the side.  We will have to work on the board.  As for Lucy, she LOVES the water.  She wiggles her hands and feet and splashes.  It looks like she will be a fish in the water before too long.
