Swim Time

Well as you know it has been HOT and I mean HOT, HOT, HOT in Lubbock for several weeks know.  We have been so consumed with baseball for a while that we have had little time to do anything else.  Well yesterday we decided that we were going to beat the heat and take the kids swimming.This would be Maddox's first time swimming.  I was a little nervous that he wouldn't enjoy it, but we decided to give it a shot anyways.  Lexi and Zachary had a blast as always splashing around and going down the slide. Maddox though was amazing....He loved the water.  We bought him a little floatie that you can sit in.  For the first little bit he layed in it like it was a lounge chair.  It has a sun shade to keep him out of the direct son.  We swam and played for an hour like that without any problems.  After that he took a bottle and napped for the next hour or so.  Then it was time to jump back in the pool.  This time we sat him with his feet through the holes upright.  Wow did he have fun.  We were having so much fun that we forgot to take a picture of this part.  He was kicking his little feet and screeching with excitement for another hour.  I have never seen a baby his age have as much fun as he did.  I have been trying to convince Cory for almost 2 years that we need a pool... A nice in ground pool of course.  Well this may have just done the trick.  He has been looking at pool's since last night.  Here are a few pics from yesterday.
