Pudgie has been swimming for about two summers now. He gets lazy and likes to leave his life jacket on but for the most part, he has been able to jump in the pool without it, swim the length of the pool twice and go back and forth on his own, for about two years. The only problem was, he hated swimming under water. He had no problem jumping in and going under, but actually swimming with the goggles on and going to the bottom was not among his favorite things to do, until now. I am not sure why the big bit him, but he decided he wanted to get rocks off the bottom of the pool like his sister and brother the other day... so I happily oblidged the little man. And man oh man did he go and go and go. I had to help push him down a few times just so that he could see that it was ok to get those feet over his head... but now he is doing flips and summer saults and everything that his brother and sister do...... and of course... he is scaring me to death when he just sits under water now!!! We end almost every night with late swims.... which tire these little munchies out.
The only draw back to the new love of swimming.... Pudgie loves for Mommy to swim with him, under water... and well, I hate green hair. Since he is having so much fun... I guess the green will grow on me!!
