First Swim

This month is filled with all kinds of firsts for our little guy. While we were in Arizona a couple of weeks ago for Wendel's grandma's funeral (more about that to come), we stayed with my dad. He has a pool so we took Oliver for his first swim. I was a little nervous about it but he seemed to love it. We've only ever given him sponge baths in the sink so he hasn't even experienced water in a bathtub. He was mostly curious at first but then he ended up really liking the experience.





He was so curious about the water and kept watching the reflection.







He seemed to have a good time with Dad.













This one is blurry but I still like it because I think Oliver looks like Wendel did when he was a baby in this particular shot.

Later that day, my friend Andrea (whom I have been friends with for 19 years - we met in the PE locker room in 7th grade) came over with her kids and they swam while we chatted. It was really good to see her (I just wish it wasn't so brief). It was fun to have her meet Oliver.





It was so much fun taking Oliver for his first swim. I'm excited for all of the firsts that are ahead.
