Dare Devil Swimmer

Gerrit started doing this Saturday night in the tub:

It made me nervous because I wasn't sure if he would come up for air! Sunday, we went to Lake City and swam and Gerrit picked up where he left off in the tub! This time he could show off to a bigger audience.
Dr. John said I didn't have to worry about him drowning himself - he said kids don't do stupid stuff like that till at least age 12-14! It gave us a good laugh and I guess I should be thankful Gerrit is not afraid of the water.


His latest pool trick is to jump in without anyone holding his hands:

Adam had not seen his new tricks yet so it was fun for him to see first hand what I have been telling him. Gerrit just started the no hands jumping this week at our local pool.


One of the great pool toys :

it actually runs on a battery and you can steer it! Gerrit just liked sitting on it!

His first Jet Ski ride - had to document that! :)

Ok, that is all for tonight, bed time. I realized I was slacking with only 2 entries in the month of July!
