First Pool Day

We had our first pool day of the season today.
Mike's pool is open and heated already.
The weather was gorgeous so the boys needed to be outside.
Mike was a good sport to take us, because taking kids to the pool is quite an ordeal. By the time we bring treats, towels, clothes, drinks, floaties, pool toys, 10 different sun blocks, etc, it was almost more than we could carry.
Here's Bubby in his new swim suit and Saxon's old Cubs hat.
Saxon started out with floaties and his Nemo ring,
then he decided that he actually does know how to swim.
So he dove right in...
Luckily, Mike was close by to help him out.
Apparently, he's ready for swimming lessons.
After having some chicken nuggets,
Bridger was dying to get in the pool with Mike and Saxon.
Getting some sun!
Bridger also thinks he can swim.
He kept diving out of his floatie ring.
Mike finally got him out and held him.
He would throw him up and dunk him.
Bridger loved it!!!
All smiles :)


The kids were excited to come home and see Daddy after their fun pool day. Saxon refused to change out of his swimming suit because he wanted to show Nate that he had been at the pool. Hopefully one day Nate will have Saturdays off...

Ps: Thanks Grammy for the new swimming suits!

:) Saxon and Bridger are really blessed to have a cousin who will take them and play with them in the pool- they look like they're enjoying every second!

They look adorable! I think its essential that children today have a friendly and good swim instructor to guide them along. So that they will take to the hobby with delight, rather than find it a useless skill. But then again, most kids always love swimming afterall.
