This little Native Likes the First Step ONLY





This little Native refuses to go past the first step. He will not even allow you to hold him in the pool!
Maybe Next Summer he will go to STEP TWO!

They can be so funny about the pool. But once they learn how to get in (past the first step) you can't get them OUT anymore! :)

Hey..
That must be very frustrating for you...for him not to want to get in the water!! I hope that next year is different for you.
Nice pool there, is that in your neighborhood?

Krystyn said...

Maybe next year?? I think momma just needs to drag him in, maybe? Or get in with him?

Kathryn said...

That is how my boys were last year too. This year they are all the way in! :)

Last YEAR he did great and got in floats and we could carry him in the water and THIS summer HE is not having NONE of the POOL! YOU ALL WANT to know the funniest thing ever....this child will take 7 showers a day...LOVES showers! NOT the BATH TUB...JUST THE shower!

Hi Tam! I have been meaning to stop by and say Hi after all the comment love you left me last week or so. If I recall you said you lived in DC awhile back. I love running across people that are familiar with my 'hood! I can so relate to this whole pool thing. My son was the exact same way. He wouldn't go in, wouldn't go in, finally decided to go in, became a jumping in maniac, but wouldn't get his head wet so I had to catch him. Then he figured out how to go underwater, but wouldn't take off his floaties. Just yesterday, he took off his floaties and an hour later had the gall to tell me that some little girl there was still a baby because she needed her floaties and he didn't. Yeah, it works like that doesn't it ;)

If he's happy on the first step, then let him enjoy it there!! And how cute are those boys????? Wow!

Stephanie said...

Too cute! My 4yo still goes in with a life vest that he loves. Will have to break him of that by next year.

Lesley said...

What a little cutie pie!!! How old is he? My youngest, he's 3 1/2, some was like that too! Now he loves to be IN the pool, but with me holding him!!

Oh well, I'll just enjoy it because this little age doesn't last long. We just about have to blast our 9 year old out! Maybe next summer!
