We haven’t really of course, but with how much we love them, we should purchase stock in the puddle jumper company.  If you don’t remember how I professed my love to puddle jumpers in the past, read this post from almost two years ago.  Yes, I do believe we are hindering Brayden’s progress in the “real” swimming category.  But for peace of mind, I’ll take it.  The pool at our new house has a terribly small shallow end for some reason–it’s the strangest thing.  So teaching him how to swim will be a challenge, and even once he learns, we are going to have to be super cautious because of the pool situation.  So for now, we’ll stick with the puddle jumpers.  Everyone is happy.  Everyone is safe.
