Ben's New Pool Skills

With our rainy and windy weather in Oregon, we spent a lot of time in the condo complex's indoor pool, which the kids adored. On the final day of our trip, all of the skills learned in years of swimming lessons finally clicked for Ben and he started swimming, on his own! Needless to say, we were all very proud.

Here are the photos taken exclusively for this blog post (I never tire of hearing the kids say, "Mom, take a picture of me now, it's going to be awesome on the blog!"):Yes, you read that little number over Steve's shoulder correctly, my little boy is swimming, on his own, in the 8-foot section of the pool!
