He's taking to the boating life rather quickly, already knowing what to do to get out of the dock. Here Will is, helping keep the boat away from the dock as we back out!
After he realized his arms aren't quite long enough to help, Will left it to his dad and took a seat to relax.
This is his new life jacket. It's quite big, the life jacket people should size these for babies a little different. There is a pretty big difference between a 30lb. baby and a 50lb. kid. BUT, they make 1 size for that range. Oh well, it will fit for awhile! At least he's not crabby in this one! AND, his head fits down into the jacket which covers his ears from the wind. He's not a fan of wind blowing in his ears.
So, here he is driving the boat. Quite a natural, hands a 10 and 2! He took us for a fun cruise around the lake; you notice grandpa isn't even holding the wheel....
BUT, shortly after he passed out behind the wheel. Guess you shouldn't leave the driving to an almost 1 year old.
He never stopped driving while he slept, his hand was on the wheel the entire time. Of course, Grandpa assisted a little more, with a sleeping baby behind the wheel, there was no telling where we might have ended up!
