Pool Time!!

What would we do without our pool?!  It is so nice to have a pool the kids can swim in during the summer.  I usually take the kids swimming at least 2 or 3 times a week.  It is a lot of fun.  We really love to have friends over to swim with us.  We have had many playdates over to the pool.  I'm sure we will  have many more before the summer comes to an end! So anyone who wants to come and swim give me a ring!! :)
The nice thing about having a pool so close is how quickly the kids picked up swimming and being comfortable in the water. Ashby is our little fish and has been an independent swimmer for a couple of years now. She loves to dive for things in the deep end and jump off the side of the pool (her latest trick is doing a cart-wheel into the pool). I think she can hold her breath for longer than me!! :) Dalton is a little water baby as well. He will do bobs underwater and swim all around with a life vest or floatie.

I love taking the kids to the pool and watching them swim and have so much fun with their friends.  It is also relaxing for me to sit and hold Brooks outside. On a side note, I am getting a nice tan from all the days at the pool.  Ryan really LOVES that! lol.  :)
