Gabe was "fishing" with a long piece of grass, when his head suddenly became heavier than his bottom and he topped headfirst into the lake! Freaked his Daddy out (made me spill my beer!), but he was 100% okay. He ended up sitting on the bottom of the lake with his chin above the water -- now we know how deep it is -- with a very surprised look on his face!
We also know how dirty the bottom is! (The bottom of the lake, I mean...well...and Gabriel's bottom too, I guess...)
Other than being completely drenched, he suffered no ill effects. I've worried about that lake during every visit since the kid was born, and Grandpa and Grandma both have reassured me that a spill in the lake wouldn't be a huge problem. Now I guess I believe them -- but I still watch him like a hawk when he's close to the edge!
