Saturday Scott and I went on a playdate to a bookstore storytime and played with some other kids Scott's age, then the whole family met Jenna for dinner at In N Out and a "Dive In Movie" : Finding Nemo played on a huge screen at a local swimming pool. When we arrived, we found that the kiddie pool area was closed, and only the pool that was open was 6 feet deep throughout!! We didnt want to get into the pool with Scott where we couldnt reach, so we decided to try a life jacket!! It wasnt too big for him around the middle AT ALL! Hes just a little too short for it, so (expecially when put INTO the water) he was a little overwhelmed. We tried letting go of him, and he sure floated, but HATED it and wiggled and flailed til we grabbed him again. It was so cute!! We ended up finding a spot in the pool where we could reach and taking him out of the jacket (much to his relief!). We enjoyed the evening, and ended it with some ice cream (best way to end a night)!!
In other news, Scott is mobile! He hasn't actually crawled the traditional way yet, but he gets on his hands and knees, and knows that in order to get something out of reach, he needs to move forward. So he scooches his knees forward (inches... just barely moved at all) and then lunges himself towards the goal toy. He gets where he wants to go, and is getting better and better every day! It is so exciting to see him grow and explore. He is so active, and determined!! When he wants something, he does what it takes to get it, and is very focused on it once he gets it. He is like his dad in that way!
