Some of you know that Owen and Mommy took some swimming lessons in April. For the most part, Owen hated the time he spent in the pool (sorry Uncle Jeff....but not to worry....he grow to like the pool!). Towards the end of the lessons, Owen started warming up to the idea of being in the pool, but would not leave Mommy's hip. If Mommy tried to do some of the things the teacher was suggesting (different holds, letting Owen float or try to kick, etc.), Owen would get very sad.
It was good that we figured out Owen might not like the water prior to our beach trip. But....when we got to the hotel pool...Owen seemed to enjoy the water! We assume the main reason is because the temperature of the pool in Pensacola was WAY warmer than that of the pool at the Anniston YMCA!! But also, Owen could sit in the pool by the beach and splash around just like he is in his bath (which he loves).
Here is some video of our little 'swimmer'.
