Sittin' Poolside!

So now that the hurricane weather in Utah has finally stopped and it's getting into the 90's, we are ready for pool time! Ken went to Southern Utah with some buddies this weekend, while Lily and I brought out the inflatable pool to catch some rays and discover the act of splashing! And I almost passed out from blowing up the pool--awesome. This also served as Lily's first time in a bathing suit (thank you Auntie Syd for providing the cutest suit and photo op ever!). I have yet to buy Little Swimmers, so we just went "baby commando" aka no diaper! I figured she'll be peeing in many pools so may as well get her started now. So we started slow...eased Lily in--feet only.
Once she got used to the coldness, Lily discovered kicking her feet equaled splashing the water leading to water in the face. Lots of fun!

Then to sitting in the pool...this took a bit longer. The first time, tears added to the pool water. The second time...kind of a smile, kind of wanting to cry...for now, we'll stick to dipping our toes in!
