Playing in the Pool

Lucy has really enjoyed splashing away her days in the pool. Her first experience with the baby pool was when we were in Chicago. My mom bought a little inflatable pool that we set up in my parent's yard. My mom had lots of fun pool toys, but of course Lucy's favorite were the free plastic cups. Here she is just laughing her little head off as she perfects her "backstroke."

This past weekend we had fun BBQing with our new friends, Chris, Katie, and Maria from our neighborhood. Here Lucy and Maria are "swimming" (and I use that term loosely). They really spent more time climbing in and out of the water than they did playing in it.

You gotta love the side sweep hair-do.

Since Lucy was having so much fun in the pool, I went out and bought one for our upper deck. On Saturday, we had some friends, Erika, Brent, and their daughter, Sophia, over for grilling. Sophia is so cute! She is four months older than Lucy and is very proficient at walking. Maybe she taught Lucy a thing or two! Lucy likes to hang with the big girls.
