Wading Pool

Volunteer Park wading pool opened last weekend. I actually thought it was this weekend. Nonetheless, when the boys got up from their afternoon nap, we took them there. We were out of the house in an impressive 30 minutes - sunblock slathered on both kids, bathing gear & all!

Vincent had a great time, and unlike last year, he actually ventured away from the edge of the pool today. He did it all on his own, and eventually did a little "swimming". Basically, he would put both hands down on the bottom, and float his whole body, belly down & head out of the water. He was so pleased with himself, and kept saying, "I'm floating!" We're proud of him for being so brave in the pool.
