The Pool

All of the kids enjoy the condo pool, but this year it was the place that Owen wanted to be.  Owen is still a developing swimmer, but he is slowly getting better.  This year he began swimming underwater for short distances.  This is an improvement because he would only keep his head above the water up until now.  Brian bought him a snorkel mask and I think that this has helped because water doesn't go up his nose (so he's more willing to try going underwater).  He still doesn't feel confident enough to swim in the deep end, but he'll get there.  I'm just glad that he keeps trying to get better at swimming even though it is something that hasn't come easily for him.  And he finally seems to actually enjoy being in the pool, so that's a plus too.  Here are some pictures of everyone having fun in the pool during our vacation.
