Splish Splash

It has been so hot here lately that the other day while I was at the store I decided to buy Ethan a little baby pool to cool off in.  It was this really cute one with a frog head over half of it so it provided shade for him.  When I brought it home Matt said I don't know if he is going to like this or not, and I agreed with him.  But while he was napping the two of us proceeded to blow it up.  At first we tried with our mouths but it was so difficult so we had to go to the only other option we had which was a cheap bike pump Matt had picked up for our jogging stroller.  We had to switch off because the frog head was huge and the nozzle from the pump was too big to fit in the rubber part so we just held it there.  When you see this thing you will think piece of cake but believe me it took us a little while to get this baby up and full.  After we got it filled with water it was like it was meant to be Ethan woke up from his nap.  We immediately started to strip him down and put him in his little bathing suit he had yet to wear and a sun hat.  And to our surprise...... HE LOVED IT! 

You should have seen him splashing around.  He just kept looking up at us with a huge smile and then would go back to splashing.  We threw in some rubber duckies and he had a blast.  In fact he was splashing so much he got me soaked because I was sitting next to him on the grass.  Matt couldn't help himself and he joined him in his little pool.  It was a tight squeeze but they made it work.  Tucker kept walking over and drinking out of it and Ethan would look at him like "what exactly are you doing to my pool."  He tried to crawl out so we figured he was done.  So we took off his swim trunks and diaper and wrapped him in a towel, but he started trying to wiggle his way out of it and get back in so we just put him back in naked.  He had a ball in his pool in his birthday suit. By the end of all of this he was so tired he passed out early and slept through the night until & 7:30 the next morning.



This is fun!
