Jack sleeps in the tub, and playing at the pool

Jack sleeping in the tubIf Jack could do all his favorite things, he would sleep, eat, and take a bath. We caught him a couple of weeks ago nodding off in the bathtub.

Tonight we just came home from the gym and Jack did his cool walk at the pool. The water displaces enough of his weight he can find his balance fast. He loves to stand himself up (Mom/Dad really put him there) on the edge of the pool and scream, play with the grate, or watch the people walking by the pool side.

He only likes to walk from shallow to deep. If Dad is in the deeper end (deep is maybe 24 inches), he will inch his way along, cautiously moving his hands along the side of the pool edge and sliding his feet toward Dad. If Mom is on the deeper end, he does something completely different. He turns around to face her and starts stepping. Of course, his balance is way off and he falls, but no holds barred, he lets go of the wall and starts marching toward mom. Such confidence!

That's a pretty classic picture right there. I think I know which of his uncles he takes after.
