The girls, all of them, are loving the pool this summer. And believe it or not, this year is a little easier at the pool then last, even though I have one more child. I am not sure if it is because I am slowly giving up, or if the girls really are doing good in the pool. Maura and Maggie are doing great with their "swimming." Neither are afraid to try to swim under water. Maura is actually pretty successful at it, and mags is still thrilled to float on her back 9from last year's swim lessons). they love jumping in and are CONSTANTLY yelling "Mom, watch!"
B loves the water too. She however is bored with the baby pool and likes to run over to the lap pool and throw herself in. No matter what she is wearing. She likes to get in the water right after I get her dressed in her dress to go home. lovely! She loves to go underwater. It is kind of freaky, because she leaves her eyes WIDE open and looks up at you. Weird. She gets cold fast and is also very content to sit on the chaise eating teddy grahams (thanks Kate).
KJ also loves to splash in the water. She will probably like it more when she can sit up... I know I will. She however usually spends much of her time in the stroller in the shade. But hey, she is not complaining, yet.
So I thought I would avoid the pool this summer, but so far it has not been too bad. Of course, I have not been there when I know no one. An issue always arises when there is a bathroom trip. Dragging the non-pee-ers to the bathroom is not always done so willingly. While trying to convince the others to follow us, the pee-er is doing the potty dance saying I CAN'T HOLD IT ANY LONGER. Those are some good times. Don't want to be the reason they shut down the baby pool. I admit it, it has happened to us before (Darn non absorbent swimmie diapers!). I would like to avoid having it happen again.
