Pool time!!!

Taking advantage of the lovely Memorial Day weather, we took the girls to the pool last weekend. I was curious to see Abby's reaction to the munchkin pool because we didn't really go much last year due to my school schedule and her nap schedule which never seemed to line up. Lexi, I knew, would be a crazy girl.

Abby approached the experience very apprehensive at first. She stayed close to Stefan and refused to venture out into the pool despite our urgings.



We tried to have Lexi show her the ropes, but after a few minutes Lexi started bellyflopping into the pool splashing and scaring the little kids. I told her to go to the big pool where that was more appropriate.



When Lexi left, Abby began to gather some bravery. She crouched down and, maintaining a slight squat to keep her center of gravity low, waddled around the pool. She smiled and giggled thinking this was pretty neat until...she fell and got her hair wet. Girl does not appreciate wet locks at all even in the bath. She wanted out immediately. We convinced her to stay in and eventually, she was having an absolute blast wet hair or not.



Meanwhile, Lexi was splashing with Uncle Faron in the big pool.




All-in-all it was a great day. It's always fun spending a family day together and with Stefan deciding to go full-time with his lawn business, we have more of those days which is completely divine!
