What's Summer Without Swimming?

Natalie absolutely loves taking a bath and Byron and I have not had the opportunity to take her to the pool all summer. So I went to Toys R Us and bought a kiddie pool. I was to nervous to put her in by herself and figured if I'm going to have to sit out in this heat I might as well join her.

We filled the pool that morning and it was plenty warm by that afternoon. To say she loved it would be an understatement. She kicked, splashed and squealed the whole time. She probably would have gone under had it been deep enough.


Working on her breast stroke.


She just couldn't figure out why Bogey wouldn't get in. He's the only Golden on the planet that HATES water...go figure.
