Pool Fun

Michael loves his pool!! He tries to get in it every time we are outside. I keep his swimsuit handy just in case I have to go in and grab it quickly, which I have had to do several times. Here are a few pictures of Michael in his pool.

I decided to give Toby a bath after Michael was done playing.
As you can see, he wanted to help.

This was at Grandma and Papa's Pool.

Vegetable Garden 2012

I finally planted a few vegetable plants last week. I usually do this in late April, but I kinda forgot. Oops, oh well. At least I got a few. I planted two tomato plants, and a basil plant. Then this weekend, I added two jalapeno pepper plants.  

I love using the containers for my garden. Besides the fact that I just don't have a good sunny spot in my yard for a garden, this is a lot easier to plant and clean up at the end.

And while I was planting my garden, this is what Michael was doing...

He had a blast and he wasn't making a mess, that's a win...win...

Lovin' the Baby Pool

Michael loves his baby pool!

Can you tell?

Michael's first Boo-Boo

Yesterday was a first for Michael, he got a boo-boo, and boy did he cry.

Yes, he has had his bumps, and falls, but nothing that left even a scratch or a bruise.

So, we were playing in his baby pool yesterday, and he decided he would stand up, using the side of the pool as his prop. Well, the side of the pool gave way, and he went stumbling over the side. It happened so fast, that I didn't have time to grab him before he went spilling over the edge.

Bless his heart, he has a scraped up nose and his lip was bleeding. He didn't cry for long, and was back playing in no time.

I know this is just the first of many, so I'm preparing myself for what's to come.

Pool Fun!

On Sunday, we took Michael to my parent's pool to go swimming for the very first time. Last summer, he was too little to go swimming.

The water is still a little cold, so we started with me holding him, to get him adjusted to the water temperature.

Then we put him in his float, and he still wasn't too sure about the water. He never did cry, but he never smiled either.

Once Daddy got in the pool with him, he was a little more happy.

He loves his Daddy so so much!

We went again on Monday afternoon, and he liked a lot better the second day. We will be spending lots of time at the pool this summer, so I'm sure he will love it soon enough.
