A new word "BOAT"

Jordan learned a new word ... BOAT! It has been added to his other favorite words, Motorcycle, Firetruck, and train. A couple of weeks ago we were invited to go to the lake with a good friend and his family. The kids were really excited about it ... Jordan didn't really understand why, he just knew his sister was really excited and we were going somewhere with Tony (a friend who works with Mike). We went to Centerhill Lake which was a little bit of a drive ... of course we heard, "are we there yet", "how much further" over and over until we finally arrived.

After getting everything to the boat, we headed out to a nice little cove where we spent the day. Constance was totally in her element, being the little fish that she is. Jordan on the otherhand ... well, when he first got in ... his little face got in the water ... He does not like it when his face gets wet. After that he it took a lot of coaxing to get him back in. He was just as happy in the boat walking around and playing. He was very excited when he got to help Tony "drive" the boat. Dominic wasn't too sure how he felt about the water. It took him a little bit to warm up to the water ... then he started splashing. It took him a little bit to get used to the life jacket as well. We found he couldn't roll over with it on, which made it quite nice when we had him lying on the seat, even though one of us were with him at all times. He actually fell asleep on the way back to the dock ... of course, it was right before we got back to the dock.

We went to Tony's parents to eat dinner and visit. It was a really fun day! Now, Jordan points out all the "boats" he sees.
