No Fear of Water

This last week Oliver lost any fear of water that he might of had. Now instead of sticking to one spot in the pool, he just walks in or goes over the edge and expects us to be there to catch him. It's a little scary. Yesterday he wanted to put on these water wings and he wore them for quite a long time while he played with toys and the lights. And I made sure to snap a few shots.

I love when he makes this face while sleeping.
We got some cleats for Eric and Oliver calls them sharp shoes.
I think Oliver's no fear of water came from us finally figuring out when low tide is at the beach. Turns out that the tide counter is backwards for Flagler beach. When it says that it is high tide, it is actually low tide! We have hit the beach twice since figuring it out and found that Flagler beach is totally transformed. Tide pools and shallow water for a really long time. Plus, when you are out on the low tide, the sand is fine and that means we come home shell free. It's awesome.
Here is the complete facepaint picture that didn't make it into the last post.

Twiggy the waterskiing squirrel

Today was the Bunnell potato festival. The highlight was that we got to see the famous Twiggy the water skiing squirrel. It was pretty cute. This one was Twiggy the 7th. The first Twiggy started in the 70's.
Oliver also got his first face paint ever and was great at holding still while she painted a football and goal post.
We then watched the parade. We got probably a bucket full of candy and the parade lasted about 15 minutes. The perfect parade.

And it looks like the pictures are on here backwards so reverse everything I said.
