A Day at the Pool

After last Saturday's success in playing with water in our backyard, we decided to take Carter to the neighborhood pool. Carter was super excited as his trip to the pool was in his new Radio Flyer tricked out wagon. The boy knows how to ride in style!

Dad and Carter slowly got into the water (the big pool is still a bit cold) and Carter was only comfortable getting his legs wet, but did not want to go past his waste for quite a while.

But as he got used to the water and also watched the neighborhood children have fun swimming, splashing, and playing in the pool, he soon become more and more comfortable moving about with Dad.

Carter soon became comfortable to stand alone in the the children's pool (smaller pool next to the big pool) as it was much warmer. Carter ended up spending more than an hour at the pool and Mom and Dad had to call it an afternoon to make sure to not miss dinner. We are sure to be here many more times as the summer continues to take hold.
