Jack and I descended on my parents abode for the holiday week.\u00a0 I had three goals:
1) Pick up baby things I had stored at their house
2) Do more work training
3) Put Jack in the pool<\/p>\n

Happily, I accomplished all three!\u00a0 Amanda was able to come down too.\u00a0 Ben had a quiet week back in Arvada while we brought the non-stop questions and playing to Grand Junction.\u00a0 I think we swam every morning and evening, about 3 hours a day at least.\u00a0 It was great fun.<\/p>\n

As usual, more pictures and video are on my flickr photostream<\/a>. \u00a0 <\/p>\n

Pre-trip, dancing with stars at Story Time.

On the evening we arrived Jack was ready to swim.\u00a0 He was so zonked by the end of the day, I found him in this position at bedtime and he hadn’t moved by morning.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

We found that the best flotation tool was a noodle.\u00a0 He could stay afloat and move around better than with the vest or the water wings. \u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

On the Fourth, we went with pool glowing toys instead of fireworks.\u00a0

The fire pit had a little gas leak or we would have made s’mores on it.

Sad to leave on Friday, but excited to see Dad in Arvada.\u00a0
