Our Lil' Swimmer

Water has always been a little scary for us. When Bennett had his trach we had to be really careful even in the bath... swimming was kinda out of the question. Since his surgery a couple weeks ago when the Dr. closed up his trach hole to make a pretty little scar... we have officially been cleared for swimming!!
We took him for his first swim in Grandma & Grandpa Jones hot tub. Bennett and I were having so much fun that the other cousins had to join in...
He loves trying new things and seems quite fearless at times. It is so fun to see his smiles for something so simple. We didnt even think this was something we would be able to do this summer. Definately celebrating the small things this Spring!
We will have to be really careful this summer because I am pretty sure Bennett would have dove in by himself
I think he would have stayed in there all day...
We spent a lot of the time trying to teach him that he shouldnt be drinking from the big water foutain. He thought it was pretty funny and I couldn't help but laugh a little...
