Jumping

Recently, Julian has gotten very comfortable in the swimming pool. He has gotten over his fear of the deep water (3 feet is deep for him) and his newest thing is jumping into the swimming pool. He also discovered how to float on water. Maybe we'll have him swimming by next summer. 


All you have to do is stand there and catch him so he doesn't dunk under the water (we're still working on learning how to close his mouth/nose/eyes). 


Julian jumps in, you help him swim to the stairs, he gets out, walks to the edge of the pool, and jumps in. 


His life jacket is his new best friend. It's very cute. 

.... on a random note: I got hired as a nurse at Fort Vancouver Convalescent Center (Skilled Nursing Facility- SNF). It's my first job as a nurse and I'm so super excited. 
The schedule couldn't be more family friendly. I work 6 days a month (part-time), on the weekend when Alex is not working, 8 hr shifts.  
Despite the fact that it's a SNF and not my dream job, its a God-send schedule and I'm happy to finally be starting my nursing career. 
Several girls from my graduating class work there too, which will make it all the more fun! 
I'm looking forward to shopping for new scrubs and shoes.
