Private Pool

We have been staying with Grandma and Grandpa this week. The kids were so excited because they have a pool. They have been swimming every day! Except for Connor (why is he always the exception?) He will not go in the pool or the spa. He walks around the edges throwing toys in the pool and reaching over the edge to get them back - AHHH! Grandma decided that he needed a distraction to keep him away from the edge. The solution...


His own private pool. We have one like this at home. So he jumped right in. I guess it is much less intimidating than a regular pool. Anyway, he loves it! Now he swims everyday too - just in a smaller pool.



The lobster raft was in the big pool, but Connor has confiscated it. He won't let anyone else use it, and if someone gets to it before he does, he demands that they give it back! Also, as if he didn't have enough already, Connor's pool is filled with warm water from the spa. Grandpa takes a big bucket and fills the little pool up with warm water everyday and several times through out the day. We wouldn't want Connor to get cold!

That lobster is adorable!!!! Your kids are beautiful. Gorgeous glowing faces. I too had extreme morning sickness with my kids. With Christi i was sick the entire 9 months and threw up even during delivery! BUT, she was worth it all! All my kids were, but I have felt so sad for you. I have so much empathy. I wish i could help you! Just know that I have thought of you so often (especially when I apply my lipgloss every day!!! Thank you!) and I've said many a prayer for you. It's just the most dismal thing - 24 hour a day morning sickness...but always so worth it in the end. It just takes so long to get to the end, doesn't it? Feel better Melissa!!!!!! You're gonna have another beautiful child!!!
