Pool Time

I bought Ben a kiddie pool for this summer and I got one that I could get in with him. His first pool experience was this afternoon. He loves bath time so I thought he would really like it. He didn't know what to think of at first but by the end he was having fun. He hadn't taken an afternoon nap and so I think that he would have enjoyed it more if he had napped first. He went to sleep immediately when we went inside!

I am using Ben's floatie that Grandma Brenda got him for Easter to strategically hide my post-baby belly. Not that I have much of an excuse, it has been almost a year after all!
He was pretty solemn at first but it was partly because he stood up and slipped
and his face got wet, which he does not like at all!

The floatie is just a tad big for him right now! He will grow into it though!

He was intrigued by the hose. I had filled the pool early in the day but the water was quite warm so I had Nathan add some cold water to make it more comfortable.

We were having fun playing with the hose and splashing in the water.

I think that we will have a lot of fun "swimming" this summer!!!
