A friend of ours got a pool for the kids to play in our backyard. In the mornings, the back yard is completely shaded and it is not too hot out yet. The boys went absolutely crazy the first morning that they were able to play in it. It took Levi a few minutes to decide that it was okay to get in. Once he did, he was splashing all over the place.
Hyrum lost a lot of his inhibitions about water while playing in the shallow wading pool. It was fun to watch him let loose a little bit.
The pool is small for Ben, but it didn't keep him from enjoying the cool water on a hot day. He can turn pretty much anything into something fun.
Adam is also pretty timid around water, but he was a wild man in the new pool. I don't think he stopped squealing with excitement the whole time.
I had to drag the boys out of the water when their lips started turning blue. They would have played all day if I had let them. Now, every morning they ask if they can go play in their pool. I just wish they could have this much fun cleaning their bedroom.
