Levi Swims in the Pool!

Today was the day Levi finally swam in the swimming pool!  

For the whole summer so far he has only been getting onto the top step in the pool.

This past weekend he accidentally went down to the second step just for a second and he could touch the bottom without having to swim.  Then yesterday he went down to the second step a couple times on his own to try to fetch the pool thermometer (it looks like a yellow rubber ducky).  He was still very cautious though and didn't want to be off of the first step for very long.  Today he walked all around on the second step and was retrieving his bumper from there.  One time I threw the bumper past the second step and he ended up having to swim.  I think it scared him for just a second and he turned around to come back, but then he went back and swam out and got the bumper.  He really liked following me around too if I was swimming. 

And a video (mostly of retrieving on the second step) of his first few swims.
