It was finally hot enough on my day off to take a swim. Charlie, Jamie and I had a fun day of splashing and floating in the crystal clear water. Charlie was not sure what to think at first, but he quickly became accustomed to the giant bath tub. He floated around splashing in the water that came up through his float and spent the rest of the time licking the float as if it was a giant strawberry. I am sure that it did not taste good, but that did not stop his curious tongue.
Charlie would kick and splash, but the water would splash into his face and he did not care for that too much. He would make a face like someone just dropped an ice cube down his back. His little legs are no quite big enough to produce a lot of propulsion in his float yet, but he can make one mean motor boat sound. I think that he may have a power steering issue though because he interjected a occasional squeal into his motor sound.
All of this excitement and physical activity wore Charlie out. He takes great naps after exiting the pool. I think that we may have to swim more often. I can't wait until he figures out how to really get himself moving across the water in the float. It will be hilarious to watch him paddle everywhere he can go.
