Community Pool Party

Last Sunday our neighborhood had a pool party. One of my neighbors had cupcake cakes made. I love the flip flop.
We also had a "pool" cake and another one that just said the name of our community. We had watermellon, grapes, chips, juice boxes, and water.

This was Josiah's first time eating a slice of watermellon. He loved it and I was afraid I let him eat too many slices but he was okay.

Josiah loved the pool. One of my neighbors told me, "I think Josiah is having the time of his life."

Wesley liked swimming but I think he liked the treats even more. He ended up eating a bag of cheetos and two cupcakes. He swam a lot in between all the snacking so I figure he worked off all the extra sugar and calories.


Thankfully, Lydia started swimming on her own again. She did great last fall through December in swim lessons and then in January decided she couldn't swim by herself. We stopped swim lessons and she has only been in a pool at Great Wolf Lodge since then. I don't know who was happier about her swimming last weekend, Lydia or I.

Wow, great job Lydia!! I'm trying to get Sammi into swim lessons this summer - it terrifies me when she's in the water, but she loves it. Just doesn't understand the concept of holding her breath...

Cool flip flop cake!
