A cool dip

Gavin has been way excited for summer, just like the rest of us! Unfortunately, the weather hasn't been too great. It even snowed last weekend. Gavin keeps asking me when it's time to get the swimming pool out. The temperature today didn't get very warm, maybe 55 and it was cloudy, windy and rainy. Warm weather or not, he was anxious to get the pool out today so he took matters into his own hands.

He ran in the house and yelled,

"Mom, mom, I opened the little box house(aka the green house where we store all the summer toys) and the swimming pool's inside."

"Oh cool Gav" and then he ran back outside.

Ten minutes went by and he came running back inside, even more excited than before.

"MOM I got the swimming pool out and filled it up with water. Can I put my swim suit on and go swimming?"

I couldn't believe he pulled the pool out all by himself. His little eyes were bouncing with so much excitement, how could I resist?

It took two seconds to get his swimming trunks on and then he flew outside. I don't think he hesitated one bit to jump in. I was just standing outside taking pictures and I was cold. He started shivering but he didn't care he just kept playing. I was laughing so hard. He was in second heaven. It didn't last very long but he got what he wanted. I am sure he will think twice before he jumps into ice cold water again. I sure had fun watching.

ONE TOUGH LITTLE BOY.... the face makes up for the muscles and the 10,000 goose bumps!

AND... Can't forget our precious Taylor. Here she is a little over three months...cute smile, wild hair, and a chunky little body. Taylor did not care to swim today.
