So the kids (and Kryssi) have been begging me to get a swimming pool. Lucas has never really liked playing in the water, so I didn’t think it would be used much if we bought one. But it’s been pretty hot lately so yesterday we went and got a cheap inflatable pool from WalMart.
I filled it up with water from the hose, and it was freezing water. I stood in there for a few minutes and I swear my feet started going numb they were so cold. But the kids loved it. I had to make McKinley get out every once in a while because I was afraid she was going to get frostbite on her feet. But she is definitely not like her brother. She loved playing in the water and Lucas never has, until this year. The pool is not big enough to do much in, but they love playing with the water squirters we got at the dollar store and just splashing around. So hopefully we have enough warm weather this summer to make use of it, but it seems I was wrong once again (not that I mind being wrong on something that will entertain the kids all summer).
