It's Pool Time

We finally scrubbed out our pool that has been full of scum since last year and filled it up. Phi was not sure at first, we tried going in with a life jacket but it kept dumping him on his face. Last year I got this toy for him to float in at 6 months of age, we stuck him in it and it works great. The pool will fill to 36" but it's only half full now. He is able to stand and buzzes around like a little water bug in his ladybug floater. It gives him freedom of movement and will still hold him up when he wants to float. Some times he'll run forward and then lift his legs and float across the rest the way. It's so fun to see him enjoy the water.

Scooping out the bugs (like Mom does)

Leroy went in too the other day for his first time in a pool.

Ride with big brother in his toy.

"Wow he's heavy!"

It looks thin but it is amazing how well it floats and holds him up.
