Jack and Will love love LOVE water. I think in previous lives, they were fish. I'm pretty sure this I've noticed gills growing behing Will's ears. (Henry on the other hand is timid around water, thankfully.) This summer Jack took swim lessons 4 times a week for 12 weeks so he is a pretty good swimmer now and can handle himself fairly well at the beach or in the pool, which is defintely good for Mommy and Daddy since we have to play man-to-man defensive with the twins :)
Will has a love of water that I have honestly never seen in another child. He is at home in the water. Daddy is convinced Willie is going to get swimmer's ear from the bathtub because he spends 90% of his bath under water with just his mouth sticking out. Will has no fear. NO FEAR! Its terrifying for us actually because he wants to swim like Jack and attempts to escape our arms constantly, even if it means him sinking to the bottom. To him its an adreniline rush of fun and excitement. For us, its an adreniline rush of fear and anxiety.
When we were in Madison we went to the hotel pool 3 or 4 times. Thank God Casey was there with us because more than once Willie dove in the deep end when we Mommy and Daddy were tending to Henry and Jack. As you can see in this video, it was constantly a race to reach Will before jumped in again.
