Aden the Merman

Saturday afternoon I took Aden to my parents' pool. It was his first time in a pool since last summer so we weren't sure how he would react. Just as in every new situation, he slowly warmed up to it. He spent the first hour on the top step.



Played some games...



Then he let me carry him around the pool a little.



A quick snack.

Then out of the pool.



Then the second step.

Finally, swimming with grandpop!

Aden kicked and blew bubbles, we were so excited!







We didn't get the hair wet this time. Aden is going to the ent this week to have his ears checked so dunking might not have been the best idea.



No dunking but plenty of dipping. He was dipping his chips in the salsa and eating it! That was a first.

That was fun, can't wait to do it again soon!

Later, I stopped by Jaime and Abby's house so Aden could play with the kids.

Jared is 6 weeks younger than Aden and so very different. Aden is mellow and Jared is a bit on the wild side.

Aden had a lot of fun playing with Amanda and her friend Taylor. Some future potential babysitters? Sunday, I didn't take any pictures. Aden was not in the best mood. Amy came back and we went to a high school graduation party and had dinner there.
