We had an amazing weekend. It was the first weekend in several weeks where we didn't have house guests and we were in town with no plans.
We went to Target and bought a little blowup pool for the kids to play in. They stood at the door with such anticipation while they watched D blow it up and fill the pool with water. They squealed with delight when they saw the pool squirted water too. They both took turns drinking from it as if it was a water fountain (well, I guess it was a water fountain...)
We also turned on the sprinklers and let the kids run through the mist. I love this age...entertaining the kids is so simple...and cheap.
On Monday, Tara and I took the kids to one of our friend's house to enjoy their pool. It was nice being at a house with a pool because my friend set up a pack-n-play in her room so Love Bug could nap. It allowed us to hang out at her pool for 5 hours. Something we never get to do with a napping baby.
The Mayor has no fear. I asked if he wanted to jump off the diving board, and he looked at the diving board and back at me and said "yes!". He went to that diving board, walked right to the edge and jumped. No fear. He jumped at least 2 dozen times that day. Now I just need to get him to learn how to swim.
Today has been a blissfully boring day. Love Bug had her 15 month well visit and Meega watched The Mayor so I didn't have to tackle both kids while at the doctor. Love Bug is 50th percentile for length (30 1/8 inch) and back up to 60th percentile for weight (23 lbs 6 oz.) She had lost weight at her 1 year visit so it is good that she packed on some pounds the last 3 months. She got an excellent report. We just need to keep working on the walking and talking. Who knew my daughter would be slow to talk?
