Baby It's Cold Outside!!

62 degree mornings are perfect for me.  I love the crispness in the air and not sweating when I walk outside.  There is, however, an exception to this perfect temperature.  This morning was the last Saturday special needs swim time at Krepps Pool, a time that Bobby absolutely loves.  We pretty much had no other choice but to put on our bathing suits, get in the car and go to the pool.  Hopefully Bobby will just want to play in the water play area and not get into the big pool!!  Yeah, Right!!

Bobby circled around the water play area for a while trying to decide whether or not he could get into the water because it was soooo cold!!

Sonny was doing the same thing!!

Joey was ready to dive right on in.  A little cold weather wasn't going to stand in his way!!!

Bob bundled up in a beach towel and Bobby finally decided that he couldn't stand it anymore, he had to get wet...

Sonny got into the water too.  Shelly also wrapped up in her towel to keep warm and Coach kept her sweats on while they watched Sonny swim.

Joey had fun in the water play area.

This boy doesn't take a bad picture!!!

Bobby made his way over to the big pool.  He finally got to run up and down the handicapped pool entrance...

I had to put my camera away and get into the pool with Bobby.  He wanted to jump into the deep end and we let him.  He spent a lot of time in the 5 ft. area, which is just above his head.  He practiced swimming and made it to the ladder over and over.  He kept getting braver and braver and wanted to walk on the diving board.  He never did jump off of the board, he just walked up and down the board.  He did finally jump off of the side into the 8 ft. water (I was already in the pool waiting for him).  Bob said that the expression on his face was priceless when he came back to the surface after being completely submerged!  He got himself right over to ladder and got out without any help from Mommy!  He also jumped into the 12 ft. water and then went back over to the 5 ft. water to play.

This coming Tuesday is the last week day special needs swim time at Krepps and I'm not sure that I will be able to bring Bobby by myself since we spent so much time in the deep water.  I was in the pool with him and Bob was outside of the pool to direct him away from the deep end while I wasn't in place.  We will have to wait and see.
