As the summer seems to be quickly going by, we spent some time this weekend enjoying the water and some warm, sunny days. Kaitlyn spent the weekend with a fever and was quite grumpy, but seems to have recovered (strep test negative today at the dr's and fever-free) and she is back to "full force"- she'll also tell you that "I'm feeling much better- can we go swimming?"
Saturday afternoon Paul and I headed to Gettysburg to join some friends at a local pool while Kaitlyn and daddy laid low. We had a blast and he had a big accomplishment- jumping off the side of the pool (standing up) into the water- he loved it, head underwater and all. I did promise him ice cream if he did this, but he soon figured out that not only was he going to get ice cream, but he was actually having fun :)
Sunday we got our own "pool" out so that we could enjoy the water- and to not share Kaitlyn's germs with any friends or our wonderful neighbors who invited us for a swim in their pool. I was quite impressed that it only took a few minutes for little Paul to remember that we can use their slide to make a waterslide.... which this year became a "diving board" for him (he was 'brave' and jumped in from the slide).
Here we go... the Redfern water and amusement park (nothing like the Enchanted Forest-Water Safari which we went to with Paul for the first time over the 4th of July vacation, but still okay).
OOHH- nobody told me the water was cold!
Don't worry- I'm okay....
The "brave" Paul III attempting his tricks.
The best part- hot dogs and chips/dip on the porch (under the long-overdue-and-finally-replaced umbrella) for lunch!
