It's been sitting in it's box on the dining table for over a week now. The weather and our poor little darling's health conspired to keep us from it, but finally I was able to break it out of it's cardboard prison. The instructions were anything but helpful, not much in the way of how-to. After a couple of minutes, smart cookie that I am, I finally figured it out (Step 1: attach hose. Step 2: use pool. Yep, I'm a Mensa candidate.) and we were ready for an afternoon of splishing and splashing in the Sprinkle Pool.
She loved it and I loved watching her enjoy herself. Win-win.
PS - Since I thought I might be getting wet, too, I put on a swimsuit for our water play. It was the first time this year. You know how I mentioned that I had lost about 10 pounds but most of my clothes were still fitting pretty much the same? Well, I figured out where I lost the weight. My swimsuit was snug on bottom and gappy on top. Exactly the look that hot moms everywhere are going for: weeble wobble.

I love summertime. And water. It keeps them busy and happy, and then gets them tired. Like you said...win/win:)

I love that first swim of the summer.
ReplyDeleteI hate loosing weight in the wrong places.
Sprinkle pool is great! And Sophie looks so proud to be in it. And can I just tell you that my daughter insists on wearing her hat just like that.
ReplyDeletewoo hoo how wonderful!! I have to break out our pool but then clean it before the kiddies get in!!
ReplyDeletelooks like fun
That looks like fun! I got Axel a sand and water table, but have yet to get him a kiddie pool. I just might have to, based on the total delight on Sophie's face in that picture.
ReplyDeleteOh my stars, do I ever love you...I was digging this post and loving the pic of sweet lil bathing beauty Sophie.
ReplyDeleteAnd then you said "weeble wobble" and I lost my shiz. Seriously.
You RULE!
She looks like she's having a blast!
ReplyDeleteOh, so happy to see she's feeling much better! A little pool and some sunshine is even better! :)
ReplyDeleteSTILL NOT warm enough for us to do this!
ReplyDeleteweeble wobble ha haha haha haha!
ReplyDeleteseriously though..she is a cutie!!
She's healthy again!! So glad she's outside having fun.
ReplyDeleteAnd losing it on top?!? NOT FAIR. That is a cruel trick of nature.
Where the heck have I been that I've never seen one of these sprinkle pools before? Where did you get it? I want my Little Bit to have one.
ReplyDeleteI ordered some swim separates for the summer. The bottoms are a skirt and a pair of shorts -- have to contain/hide that wobble.
Aw, what a great thing to be able to do after being sick! Glad Sophie's better!
ReplyDeleteSwimsuits cannot be trusted.
I lose weight in my face. My ass was always the last to go
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Looks like a fun pool! And hey I'm sure you look totally great in your swimsuit.
ReplyDeleteAw, she looks so cute--and that looks like a fun pool.
ReplyDeleteWTG on the 10 lbs!!
I always loose my boobs first. Always.
ReplyDeleteGlad the little stinker was able to enjoy her pool.
ReplyDeleteI just went out yesterday and bought a slip 'n slide for my girls. They've never been on one... is that not sad?! I'm a horrible mother.
LOVE the sprinkle pool. We have something that sprays out of a ball, but it looks a little like I'm going to get way more wet than I like to in the front yard, so haven't broken it out yet.
ReplyDeleteLove the Bean's swimsuit: N. has the same!
You make me want a yard!
ReplyDeleteAnd weeble wooble has GOT to be hotter than, um, cheesey thighs. :o)
haha, i know how you feel! when i lost weight people kept telling me my face looked thinner, and nice as that is, it was not the area of my body i was most interested in reducing. now i see what they mean though - you really look great in the pics in your recent posts. your face looks thinner, and it is a good look:)
