Have Fun

Yesterday morning was not the best of mornings.  I was exhausted.  Everett went to bed way to late the night before,and woke up way to early.  Which meant he tried to act like he wasn't tired all morning, but he was extremely tired. We went garage sale shopping just to get out of the house while Todd was cleaning the offices.  When we got back both kids had fallen asleep.  Jacquelyn went right back to sleep in her crib, but Everett on the other hand did not.  I knew he was tired, but he fought a nap for almost an hour.  By that point Todd was home and I was a grouchy mess.  I finally had it being in the house so I decided we would get our suits on and get in the pool.

I got the pool ready, while Everett was suppose to get his suit on, but he decided to just come out and play.  I wasn't in the mood to change both kids into their swim diapers and suits so I nixed that when Everett didn't do it himself.  Besides Jacquelyn usually doesn't get in the pool, and Everett's in it for 2 seconds and usually only gets his legs wet.  So what was the point?!

Today was a different day.  Everett decided to really swim and have fun in his pool.  He was going from the big pool to the little pool, splashing, the full works.  He was loving it!  Needless to say it brighten both our moods.  I was laughing, Everett was laughing.  So much better then being stuck inside. We got Jacquelyn in and she loved it too! She usually wants out, but I think the water was a little warmer this time.  After I awhile I asked Everett if he was ready to go in and change.  His response "No Mom have fun, have fun Mom!"  How could I say no to that?

I found out, today, why swim diapers are truly worth it.  I was trying to get a good picture of Everett's diaper, but he was literally blowing up. 

  There's nothing better then enjoying some time out in the sun to brighten your day.  Maybe a much needed nap that was luckily finally able to happen after our afternoon of swimming.
