On Tuesday last week it got up to 80 degrees. It was a random event as this week's highs are only in the 60s and as you may have already read it didn't get into the 50s on Saturday up north.
I took advantage of the great weather and filled up the kiddie pool for the first time this year. My girls love the water! This was a real treat for them. The treat for me: I got to use my new rain barrel for the first time and I also got time to myself to pull weeds and turn over the garden beds a few feet away. They played in here for about an hour and a half. They would have continued if it wasn't dinner time and there was any water left inside.
Maren loves to get her hair wet. She chose this "toy" right away to bring from the bathroom to the pool.
This is one of those phases. When Lilly has something now she holds it out to you. I don't know if she's showing me or if she wants me to tell her what it is called so she can practice her words. Maybe she is just too excited to keep it to herself and is handing it to me to share.
You tell me.
Maren lets me take her picture if she can make a funny face and then see it immediately on the camera screen. Drama, drama, drama, it's a good thing I signed her up for a theatre class through community education this summer.
Note: I should have remembered to empty that last bit of water out of the pool. Otherwise as you are drawing with chalk on the driveway the next afternoon you eleven month old will crawl right into the pool in her clothes and then you have to let the three year old do the same thing.
Ew, that water was dirty.
