No Fear

Our little boy Asher appears to have no fear (or maybe it is just that he is a boy!). Let's see, escaping his crib at what, 8 months old, black eye at 10 months old, and swimming under water at 11 months old? Huh? A couple months ago during open swim, Asher had his first under water experience. He just took a nose dive in from the sitting position. He did not appear to like it much at the time. Well, today Asher could not get enough of "swimming" under water. He "cruised" along the side playing with the water toys, took me by ONE hand and walked me through the pool, crawled in the shallow waters, and then would just lean over when walking with me to pick up a pool weight by going under! He also took some dives while crawling and standing at the side, too! He appeared to be part fish and not bothered at all by the underwater experiences.

I think we are trouble. All eyes will be on our little boy with no fear for years to come, I'm afraid.
