We've been taking Matthew to the neighborhood pool for the last few weekends and he did not particularly enjoy being in the water, regardless which parent was holding him -- he was starting with the pre-cry pouts. That was until last Monday when Maria showed him how to splash and he took to splashing immediately. He was splashing so furiously that he got himself and both parents all wet.
Now, whenever we give him a bath, the actual bathing interrupts his splashing. He used to splash only with his feet in the bath tub but now he uses both his arms and legs. I have a feeling that we've created a splashing monster.
P.S. For a birthday present, Maria signed up both Matthew and me for four baby swimming classes, which start on June 7th. I have a feeling that these swimming classes will turn into 4 hours of splashing. :-)

Collin would love to join you one weekend now that he is over his ear infection finally. He loved his swim lessons until they were interrupted by this nasty ear infection...
