Playing Outside

Have you ever blown up a baby pool? It's much harder than I thought. About half way through I thought I might pass out! After a good half hour of huffing and puffing the pool was inflated enough to hold water so we headed outside, slathered in sunscreen, with our pool toys, towels, sunglasses, hat, folding chair and other various items that one needs to sit in a puddle of water in the front yard.

At first Cole was not so enthusiastic. The pool where we take swimming lessons is heated, so I think he was a little shocked at the temperature, but he eventually got used to it.




Since most activities only hold Cole's attention for a short time, he was ready to get out pretty shortly after he got in and around this time Brien arrived home from work. Cole's next outdoor activity involved walking down to the mailbox!
He was tired after walking all the way down there, so he rode on Brien's shoulder's back.
Next he decided that he wanted to take a drive. But that lasted about 30 seconds, so he pushed the car instead.
