So this past week we purchased a small pool for Justin. $10 at the local C. Tire store.
Filled it with 3 inches of water.
Let the wonderful hot weather we are currently experiencing heat the water nicely.
Today Justin went swimming. I stripped him down outside and just
dumped him in. (after of course checking that water was indeedy warmed
up) This little 11 month old boy had SO MUCH FUN!!!! Made his
mom-mom laugh. I had purchased some sand toys a while back on sale,
and I dumped half of them into the water with him. Splash and dump
and attempt to drink. Boy.... you couldn't have asked for more fun.
AND THEN>>>> he learned that he>>>>> could
climb out! WOW!!! more fun!!!! more excitement!!!! More screams
of AHH!!!!!
Later today he might experience the joy of bike riding too. Justin
and I picked up a bike seat for him while garage-saling this morning
and then hubbie and I picked up a toddler bike helmet for him this
afternoon. He was unimpressed at the store (he HATES wearing anything
on his head). So we'll see how that goes.

It was Justin who was unimpressed, not me :)
We never did get out bike riding, but we are ready to do so.
Annette failed to mention that Justin has also learned the joy of falling into his pool while fully clothed. He is a little boy who thinks everything should be where he thinks it should be, so when he saw his pool toys outside of the pool he carried them over and put them in, and went in himself.
