For Sweet Pea, Saturday's are synonymous with going to the pool! You ask her on any given day, what we're doing on Saturday and her immediate response is a great big sunny smile along with her shouting either "PLASH" (her way of saying "splash") or "WATER"!
Michael, Sweet Pea, Cousin Jacob and I are at the pool practically every Saturday morning. Sweet Pea and Cousin Jacob have so much fun there! We love going in the mornings because there's hardly anyone there. The crowd doesn't start showing up till about 11:30 or so. In fact, if you wait to show up any later than that you'd be lucky if you found one free chair, much less a table with shade.
Here are some pictures from the many Saturdays at our neighborhood pool this summer:

I like this pic that Michael took

this was the first Saturday that we went - it wasn't quite hot enough for us to not get a little chilled dunking in the water

this was a Saturday afternoon visit - a lot more people around, but at least we got a family pic out of it

Cousin Jacob joined us the next time we went - the fishy boat was popular with both Sweet Pea and him

Cousin Jacob running through the water spray. Sweet Pea loved watching him run through this area but she refused to get close enough to the water to get splashed.

all dried off and ready to head home (with a detour at McDonald's!)

Aunt Tina gave us the sea horsie since Kobe has outgrown it. Incidentally, she also gave us the fishy boat that Kobe outgrew.

we put those water wings on Sweet Pea (in addition to the floatie vest - that she calls "backpack") and look out, because she's a little fishy in the water! She didn't want us to hold on to her and she absolutely LOVED it when we were a ways from her so she could furiously paddle to make her way over to us. It was the cutest thing!

more swimming!

you chopped your hair off! It looks so cute!
The pool pics are great...Looks like Sweet Pea loves the water.
Sadly, we haven't gotten into the pool too much this summer. We're late risers, so it's usually too hot by the time we're up.
Your new bob looks fabulous, btw!
