Tanner one day at a time

Today we spent 3.5 hours in the pool. After naps the kids like to go swimming. I also like it, because it keeps the kids happy and gets them tired so they sleep much better at night. Winter has learned to swim by herself in just 3 days. Our swing set has a slide that we have never attached, so I dragged it into the pool yard, and set it up so it runs straight into the pool. It's really a pretty small slide, but still very fun. For the first time, I also turned the hot tub on while we were swimming. It's nice, because I just turned the heater on for a few minutes, and then just let the jets run, without the heater. I really want to throw a huge pool party for all our friends and family one of these days. I think I'll try for the 4th of July. So anyone that reads this: you're invited!

sounds like a blast. We just bought our plan tickets and we arrive shortly after the 4th of July. The 10th I think. Can't wait to use the pool then!

We'll see you then!

When the kids have had swimming lessons, the teachers play games to get the kids brave about putting their faces in the water. They drop toys on the floor of the pool and make the kids pick them up, or tell them to blow bubbles in the water. Just some ideas for Sterling...

Sounds like fun! I have fond memories of summers by the pool.
