Swimming!

This past weekend we went to the lake with Trisha and her 3 kids. Jacob thought we were crazy to go since there were 7 kids and 3 adults, but it really was not that bad. Up until this point the babies had really not been in the lake swimming for more than like 2 seconds and they did not like it. Well, this weekend they took the plunge, literally. Saturday morning we took a long boat ride and found a cove to anchor and swim. They were practically jumping off the boat where the ladder was on the boat and Mark was having a hard time holding them back. I was already in the water and Mark did not have his suit on so it was all me. I have never been crazy about holding the babies in the water, but I did it. At one point all 3 of them were in and loving it.

Caleb made a big step this weekend too in that he started jumping off the dock and boat into the water. He was having a blast and Mark threw a Frisbee to him as he jumped off the dock and tried to catch it. He loved the game and actually caught it a couple of time.

Cecilia and Christian in the water. Mark was trying to hold Cohen back so that is why it is not that great of a shot.
