The Swimming Pool

Steve was at Target last week and saw a "baby pool" for $30.  It now lives on our deck.

We filled it last week, and it also instantly filled with bugs.  Disgusting.  So we emptied it, cleaned it, refilled it, and put a mosquito net over it.  That also allowed the water to warm during this week's heat wave. 

Yesterday morning, the kids got to take a dip in just their swim diapers.  I attached the hose to get the "waterfall" part to work, and the kids had a blast!!  DJ splashed and kicked in the pool, and Elektra tried to imitate him as best she could.   The only issue is that the waterfall introduces cold water directly from the well, so after about half an hour, I had 2 blue kids.

I also pulled out their new watering cans, which they both loved.
