Learning to swim!

We have had a great accomplishment this summer! Braxton has learned to swim! We go to Grandma Virginia's pool pretty frequently during the summer, but Braxton is always afraid to swim without his ring. One night we decided to see if Braxton could touch in the shallow end and he could! He was so excited! After that we were teaching him to blow bubbles and such in the pool. Next thing we know he is going underwater without holding his nose and keeping his eyes open! By the end of the night, he was running and jumping into the pool! It was amazing. He was swimming through Chad's legs underwater. He LOVES the pool now and keeps asking when we can go back so he can practice. This July has been so chilly that we haven't had a chance to swim too much. Hopefully August will be warmer!
