Sprinkler Park Fun- June 26, 2009

My goal is to catch up on blogging!!

We spent most of summer at the YMCA pool! Reese loves it and Raygan-Elise LOVES it. It is about the best way I could make her happy during the day. I also think that it really helped her learn how to walk due to the weightlessness of the water as she was moving if that makes sense. She also really enjoyed swimming. Dad says he's never seen anything like it. Her little legs just look exactly like a frog under water. You can put her in those $1 swim rings (not the ones for babies, just a plain old swim ring) and she will hold on over the top of the ring and swim around to you. Hilarious!! She also wasn't scared of going under. We played "jump" off the side everyday during adult swim. She is a water baby and now the only thing people comment on is her tan! She's got a good one!! Reese enjoyed swimming to the bottom of the pool this year and of course making friends with everyone. Each day he had a new friend. He isn't shy and will just walk up to the kids and ask them to play. He had a blast and he especially loved the snow-cone truck that is stationed there! Sour snow-cones were all the rage with him!

We made it to the sprinkler park once this summer. We went with John Aedon, Stacey, Vince, and Valerie. It was a fun afternoon. Raygan-Elise was unsure about things touching her feet as usual (the ground is rubber and peeling in certain areas and sticks to your feet). You can see her doing this in one of the above pictures. She hates for things to touch her feet and LOVES shoes!
