The Next Olympian


My mom gave Johnny this swimming aid a couple of years ago and he's been obsessed with it lately. He wanted to sleep in it last night, but mean old daddy wouldn't let him, so he had to be content with putting it on his pillow.

This morning, he woke early and got into bed with me. When he made a funny rustling noise every time he moved, I sat up to see what was going on. He was wearing it again.

John cracks up every time he sees Johnny in it, because he says he looks like Aquaman. Speedos on the bottom and big poofy chest on the top.

Perhaps this is a sign he'll be the next big thing in US swimming? And surely even Michael Phelps wore floaties at age four?

"Speedos on the bottom and big poofy chest on top." That's too funny!

that's such a cute photo! And since Phelps is from your neck of the woods, you must be very proud. :) That line in Cars is when Lightening finished the road and they all think he's left Radiator Springs and he pulls up next to Mater. It's the lines that Mater says that Caed thinks is repeat worthy!

Collin has one of those too. I think it makes him look like superman because of the big chest and the tight pants. It cracks me up every time I see him wear it. I love the picture of Johnny. Maybe when we see him in the olympics you can show that pictures when they do his bio :-)
