Surfer Boy

Okay so I have been wanting to get some pictures of Ethan in his little board shorts for a while now and I finally did! Dave, Ethan, and I went to the Rec Center on Monday for Family Home Evening... and it was so much fun! :) Ethan just loved having Daddy with him, and like always, loved the lazy river and the fountains. And Mommy had the chance to sit in the Hot Tub & the Steam Room while Daddy & Ethan played.

Ethan was getting a lot more adventurous this time... he kept putting his face in the water. Of course, every time he'd get a mouth full of water. Anyway, I just think that Ethan is the cutest little man in his board shorts (Thanks Heather & Myka!).

That's a smile you just can't resist. It makes me smile just to see this picture.

Swimming

So we (Grandma and myself) took Ethan swimming at the Rec Center (South Davis Rec Center to be exact). One thing I love about Utah is that they do Rec Centers right... I love ours. There's an indoor track, 4 pools, lots of space and equipment, etc. As for the pools- even the pools are awesome! The "Leisure" pool has a lazy river, a slide, and a climbing structure for kids. In the summer there's an outdoor pirate ship for kids to play on. I love it! :)

Anyway... back to the point. We went to the pool on Monday afternoon. It was actually the saving grace of our Monday (we were supposed to have a fun & fancy free day but nothing we tried worked out- until swimming). Ethan loved the water! I thought that we'd spend maybe 15 minutes in the water before we had to leave, but instead after an hour we were leaving only because we needed to get dinner- Ethan would have been fine to hang out a little longer. :) Ethan loved the various fountains and the lazy river. After just a few minutes Ethan was one relaxed baby! :)

We went again this afternoon. Both times I have wanted to take a picture of Ethan in his cute little board shorts (thanks Heather!). He is seriously so cute in his little trunks. But I left my camera in the car and I don't think the other ladies in the locker room would appreciate that. One of these days I'll get some pix of him. But it is so much fun to have one more excuse to go to the Rec Center! :)
