Pool fun

On sunday we went to the pool! Big guy had been in a pool last august, but he was only 6 months old, so I knew this experience would be a lot different. We went to Grandma C and Grandpa J's pool with Uncle I. It's a really big pool club. There's a huge pool for everyone. A medium sized pool and then an awesomely fenced in little kids pool.

We of course stayed to the little kid pool. It was nice b/c it sloped in very slowly. There were water spouts, water shooting down off a mushroom shaped shader, and another flat shade provider. We stayed under the shade provider. Big guy wasn't too thrilled with the water spouts. I think this is funny b/c he loves the hose- but maybe it has to be on his terms!

Big guy was splashing, playing with buckets and other toys in the pool. He even ventured to the "deep end." Which came up to his hips. He thoroughly enjoyed himself. Then he eventually didn't want to be in the pool, but but instead running around the outside of the pool. Which, I know, don't run at the pool, but try explaining that to a toddler! Then to end the lovely visit he had a full on meltdown b/c I wouldn't let him play with any rocks- which incidentally he was trying to eat. However, I think we'll have to venture to more pools this summer- it's just too hot not to!
