Swimming

It seems like warm weather comes later and later each year. I remember when I was little, it was always warm enough to swim on the last day of school. This year it was ready to go June 14 (the day swimming lessons started). However, it still isn't terribly warm outside.
The kids loved playing in the pool while it was filling up. It takes 4-5 days to fill up with the hose; can't have much more fun than playing in hose water while it's about 60 degrees outside. Alex got a bad case of "swimmers toe" after this round of playing in the pool. Swimmers toe is when the bottom of the pool rubs off the pads of your toes...it burns, and bleeds, and Alex was a mess.


This was Spencer's first official swim of the season, he has pretty much picked up where he left off. He still loves the water wings, and can kick his way all around the pool.


Parker loved the water as well. It was a little cool outside, not completely comfortable, but he still loved it. He loves the bath tub, so I think the pool felt really good.
