The Fish...

Between our neighborhood pool, and our backyard blow up pool our boys have turned into fish! Because it is so hot here, the water comes out of the hose nice and warm, instead of cold, so the boys have made very good use of the backyard pool.


Eli enjoys this more than his bath...maybe because the rules aren't as strict. I let him stand up (not allowed in the bath), I keep the water running slowly (not allowed in the bath), and he can splash as much as he wants (kept to a minimum in the bath).



Seth also is a big fan of the blow up pool...and of spitting. He loves to drink water out of the hose and then spit it at whatever or whoever happens to be in front of him at the time. He was a little put out when I told him spitting in people's faces wasn't really o.k., so he resorted to just spitting over the edge.

Unfortunately I didn't capture a pool picture of Zach; but I did however grab this one of him jumping! Susie, I especially thought you would appreciate this one!! These boys have so much energy, I wish I could tap into it!!

Eli is getting so big...and cuter by the minute! I do wish he and Emi could play together! I love the look of your blog...did you do that yourself? I am totally impressed. On your "be encouraged" section, you should add the "Above Rubies" web site. It's an awesome Christian website for moms...based on Titus 2...anyways, it is very encouraging.
