Friday was another fun day with my parents. We got to sleep in a little (Eli, of course, was up by 8...) and had a nice, laid back morning. We headed over to Ryan and Jennifer's community pool and swam for a little while. This was the first time Eli went in a pool, so there are many pictures to document the event, of course :)

Edgar took him in the water for the first time.

He did
great. He didn't cry (even though the water was a bit cool when you first got in). He rarely looked away from the water-he seemed to be fascinated by it. He was kicking his feet the whole time-have I mentioned the he will one day be an Olympic swimmer? ;)

We had
tons of
sunscreen on him, and got a nifty little long-sleeved swim shirt. His hat doesn't match, and is way too big, but it worked. I may have to go shopping for a new one :)

Grandma got to hold him. Carly kept saying "Give him to me! I'll hold him!" But we didn't think it was a great idea...Apparently her getting to carry him once gave her the idea she could hold him all the time :) She played really well with him, though, while
we held him.

Kisses from grandma...while Carly posed.

We stayed in the water with him for about a half hour. I think he would have played longer, but we were getting hungry!

I thought my brothers and sisters would enjoy this...
ahhhh, the memories...

Jenny getting Eli to smile...and look away from the water.

Mommy and Eli. Wish I would have noticed his shirt was up around his armpits...

After lunch and showers, we headed over to Ben and Carly's school for a fundraiser they were having. Carly is really handy to have around-she loves to entertain Eli!

Ben
showin' off his skills.
We ate dinner at their school, and then headed for home. Ryan and Jennifer had to stay to clean up, so Ben and Carly came with us and got to play with grandpa and grandma. Another fun day!
