First Swim of the Season

Yesterday was Memorial Day and also Jaina's last official free day before she was to be set apart as a missionary and we decided to spend it at the Lindon Pool. We had a lot a good sized group there. Jaina, Jill, Mike, Georgia, Marie, Ty and Jon were there with Danny, our kids and myself. A year has passed by and Addie is still a little cautious when it comes to playing in the pools. I called about three weeks ago to get her started on some private swimming lessons and was put on a waiting list. We're currently waiting to hear back from a swimming instructor. Eventually she relaxed in the water and had a fun time with her uncles and aunts. At one point she had Danny take her out of the water because she needed to go potty. We were both surprised that she insisted on being taken to the bathroom instead of just peeing in her swim diaper. Needless to say we were pretty proud of her.  It was Hudson's first time swimming and he didn't really show much emotion. He didn't seem to love it but he also didn't seem to hate it which was Addie's first reaction to the pool when she was his age. It was a fun morning. We would have spent a little more time there but eventually left to meet the newest member of the Rueckert family, baby Paisley. My sister Pollyanna gave birth on the 27th and her baby looks so much like Aria. I absolutely love the newborn stage, the only thing that would make that phase perfect would be if it included more sleep throughout the night.
He's a thumbsucker.

These were later that night. Look at his sweet face!
Blurry but so cute!
