As I mentioned in a few previous posts, Hunter has finally given into the temptation of the pool. Now we can't keep the kid out of it! We are both super happy that he wants to enjoy it with us, however we were looking for alternatives to have him "beside us" rather than us holding him.
Now that he's been in a few times and is completely comfortable, we figured we'd give a few other ideas a try...
First we tried the "lady bug" floatie my mom bought for him. It's got little holes for his legs and he would just sit up in it.

This picture doesn't truly capture the "agony" that was trying to put him in this thing. The little stinker straightened his legs and wouldn't budge. We eventually got him in it, but he kept tipping forward, as though he wanted to swim, essentially giving me a minor heart attack.
We moved onto the next logical decision, that is arm floaties. And before anyone freaks out, I would never ever be more 1 inch away from him with these on.

Needless to say, he hated those as well.
I think for now, we'll stick to the happy way... and that is being held by anyone/everyone that dares to get in the pool!
