Originally we had a pool mat. Basically it was a literally a mat that filled up with maybe an inch or two of water. You hook the water hose up to it and the water will come out of a few little sprinklers. Perfect for Blake!!! Well, we went ahead and got it ready while Blake was napping. That way the water would be warm by the time he got in it. Aren't we nice parents?!!? Once we got it all ready we, being the big kids that we are, kind of played in the pool mat ourselves!...and we broke it. Oops. We tried to see how high we could get the sprinklers to go and I guess with our adult weight it busted. Darn!!! All before Blake could even try it out. Sigh...EPIC failure.
So... we went out and got another pool for Blake. This one was just the standard plastic pool, but we had SO much fun. Blake was a little unsure about it to begin with. He kind of looked at us like, "Why are we in the yard taking a bath?!" He liked sitting in our laps and just having his feet in the water, but we he wasn't a fan of getting anything else wet. Something about letting the water hit his tummy or back was just not OK! Haha.
You know, many other Memorial Days we have had lots of plans with lots of friends and family. However, this one was just PERFECT with the 3 of us in our little back yard. :)
Super cute! Love Blake's swim trunks...what a big boy:)
