Learning to Float

I accidentally filled the bathtub too high tonight, but it was a fortuitous mistake because Nicholas loved it! At first he was not particularly happy because when he kicked around he couldn't splash since his legs were deep under water. But then he figured out that he could lift his whole torso up to the top of the water and really kick up a storm. And this was apparently the coolest discovery ever! I had my hands under his shoulders so his head wouldn't go completely under, but he was lying back, basically floating, and kicking and splashing like crazy.

At his size the bathtub is as good as a swimming pool, but without the hassle of sunscreen. Score!
