Day 543 - First Time in a Pool for James! 🏊🏻‍♂️🩲🥽

Sunday, June 26th, 2022

James' nap schedule was off today so we didn't get to go in the pool until later in the afternoon. It had rained pretty hard in the morning so the water was very cool. We had bought a pool floaty 🛟 for him that James only stayed in for a few minutes. We may not put him in it correctly but basically James was sinking into the water and it didn't feel safe unless we were holding up the pool floaty which was pretty pointless. So Mom took him out of that and ended up holding him on her lap and then moved him to the first step of the pool which he enjoyed. We allowed his circuit to be in the water just as if he was in the bathtub. The only thing that we did differently was take off the circuit cover since more of the circuit would be in the water. James wore his reusable swim diaper and his swim shirt and shorts.

As soon as we got him out of the pool we wrapped him in a nice big thick blue towel. He was very photogenic and looked just like a cover of National Geographic. While it was warmer outside than inside the air conditioned house we dried him and changed him into an outfit and then sat outside in the lanai. He really loved being outside but it was even better not having to worry about wasps and other insects. 🌴

Some excellent photos this weekend! 📸👶🏻😍

James made this face because Tommy barked really loud and scared him.

James is trying to get a little pom-poms off of Aunt Robin shirt.

James loves being tickled!

P.S. You can email James your loe and support as often as you’d like. Mom and Dad read these email to James as they come in. We all love them! JamesWestonAbramowitz@gmail.com
