Joe has discovered his ability to climb stairs. We knew he could, as he climbed the stairs from the man cave to the kitchen (3 stairs and we watched it), but we recently discovered he’s a little more daring. We weren’t able to find Joe one day, and then we heard something upstairs. We went to the stairs, and he was just sitting at the top smiling down on us.
Since then, Joe has made a beeline for the stairs whenever he can. He gets up them with such ease. We haven’t figured out how to get down them though, which is the scary part. So far he hasn’t tried.
Another first for Joe was we went to the Indoor Pool at the Harris YMCA today. It was first time Joe’s been in the pool since he was really young and couldn’t crawl. He hit the water and beelined for the deep end. He laughed for the first 10 minutes, and kept kicking and moving his arms to swim faster.
Izzy loved the pool as well. Today, Izzy and I went to the park, then disc golf, then the pool today. She asked to do the big water slide, and we discussed how she needed to be able to swim on her own first without crabbie. Maybe this will help her get to swimming on her own. She loves the water. We all took naps when we got home!
