Kiddie Pool

This weekend we decided to introduce Gavin to his kiddie pool.  He has already been swimming in "real" pools and at the beach, so we weren't sure how he would take to the kiddie pool.  I thought he might decided he was too cool for such a small pool.

However, like all other forms of swimming, Gavin loved his kiddie pool as well!  He wasn't too sure at first, so I climbed in with him in my regular clothes.  Gavin promptly felt better about the whole thing and soaked me with all his happy splashing.

So Gavin spent the next half hour or so splashing away and playing with a bunch of kitchen tools (it really is funny how many kitchen gadgets are also quite fun to play with in the pool) while Ryan and I sat in lawn chairs next to the pool, feet dipped in, drinking some beers.  We are such classy parents :)

Like every first time experience, Gavin is still debating if he likes this or not...

Success!

Gavin was a little confused by these bath/swimming toys.  I wasn't too sure what the yellow one was supposed to be either.  McDonalds Fries?  Pasta?  Coral??

We should just assume that Gavin is going to love doing anything that involves splashing!
