Bathing Beauties

The Sharp family has become some of our best buddies - both Mommy & Daddy's and Jacob's! In late July the Sharps kept Jacob while Daddy took Mommy out for her birthday (Yay - Greek food!). Aaron and Jacob got to have a splashing party before bedtime. Check out these great photos, compliments of Sarah Sharp. I CAN'T RESIST the bubble mohawk!!! :)

Splash Class

Since we are planning a trip to Hawaii in September, we decided to get Jacob used to being in the water. So we enrolled him in what they call "Splash Class". It is a pre-swimming class for toddlers that teaches them to blow bubbles, get out of the pool, and to generally relax in the water. It was very cute to watch them sing songs (well, the parents sang songs, anyway...) and splash around. Our little guy was especially splashy! All the other parents kept asking us if he'd taken this class before, because he was so comfortable in the water, and actually enjoyed it! We hope that this is a sign of him liking to swim in the future - like Daddy!
