Day One Hundred and Sixty Four and Counting...

In previous posts, I shared photos of my girls in their little inflatable pool.  What I didn't share was the mess Grace made with it, adding lots and lots of sand and soil to the pool.  More than once.  So, it just wasn't worth it to continue filling the pool, just so she could make mud stew.

Instead, we bought the girls this:

We figure it will use about the same amount of water, if not less... and no mud stews!

The girls were very excited, if a bit timid at first...

Braving the cold water!

She is fascinated with the water!

Trying for a drink!

Livie's attempt was not so successful!
