Trent is 17 months old today! He got a new to him toy. Aren't hand-me downs fun?! Trent sure thinks so!
I'm not sure why he insisted on climbing up the slide, but he was not going to give up without a fit fight.
I was going to wait until 18 months to do an update, but here are a few quick things I'd like to remember about Trent at 17 months...
- He loves all things outside. I have to bribe him to come inside by asking if he wants an animal cracker. {I'm not proud of this, but it works.}
- He has no fear of water, which can be very scary. I taught swimming lessons in high school and college, and I remember the children who would just let go of the edge of the pool and start to drown go under water. I'd have to grab them and pull them up. They'd come up choking on water and SMILING. Trent is one of those children. He loves going under water!

Getting him out of the big pool is like taking him inside; it usually results in lots of tears.
Trent's favorite part was dumping water over his head.
I mean, he really enjoyed it...
Aren't $10 pools great investments?!

- If I ask him if he is funny, he will fake laugh. If I asked him if he cried today, he will fake cry. It's hilarious!
He and cousin Trevor had fun skinny dipping last weekend.
