Swimming...

We have been taking advantage of the sunny and hot weather and have been heading out to the pool each day. The boys groan about it some days and then when they get there and see they have friends there they love it and many days I have trouble getting them to leave. It's nice that they are older and I can leave them at the pool and come back later to pick them up.

Kennedi is even loving the pool now. She has a little friend she plays with a few times a week. M is a little less than 2 months younger than she is and they really are cute together. Kennedi loves the water. I figured she would since she loves to take a bath. Last week I stood her in the baby pool and she grabbed the side and stood there playing with toys. Every once in awhile she would let go and fall into the pool and grab the side again and stand up. She never cried or fussed.



Yesterday we went into the big pool without her float. She will sit and chill in her float for a long time. Yesterday I had her and she just splashed around and kicked her feet. When someone would splash her she would never cry. I decided to see what she would do if she went under. I thought it was about time, she is 10 months old.

I grabbed her hands and bobbed her up and down a few times and one bob I just put her all the way under. She came up and did not cough or cry. It was amazing! It was like she knew to close her mouth and she did it. Of course I had to do it again about 10 more times yesterday. While at the pool today I did it a few more times and it really did not seem to phase her at all. We are so lucky to have such a laid back and wonderful baby!!

I could not forget the boys. I was going to put some of their pictures on here from the pool also but none turned out good at all! Of course they have discovered the club house and that the food is better up there. I finally let them go up and get some lunch.

When we got home today I put Kennedi in for her 2nd nap and Conner and I had to run an errand. Avery was home with Kennedi in case she woke up. I get a call when we pulled back into the neighborhood and it was Avery saying....

Mom, Kennedi is asleep in her crib without a diaper on.

I thought he said with a diaper on and I was like... OK and you are calling to tell me she has a diaper on..

But he said no mom she does NOT have a diaper on...

Oh no! I told him we were in the neighborhood so stay out of her room and I would be there in a minute. I guess this is her latest thing. She took her diaper off for the first time last week.

Sure enough we got home to this....
and this....
and also this....

aww what a sweet baby!!
Yes, I took the original picture off. I figured Kennedi would one day kill me for that picture. On top of that if her "protectors", AKA, her brother's ever saw it I would be in very big trouble!(Thank you Nancy for photoshopping that for me). Hmm maybe I should send some of my pictures to Nancy to photoshop (I really would love to look like a size 2).

What a little stinker! Glad it was nothing more than a wet spot though!!

Wow! Kennedi is such a big girl in the pool! I had to laugh at your photos of the diaper, the pee spot and the hiney! Too cute.
