In an attempt to keep the boys off the neighbor's new trampoline (freaked out about spinal cord injuries), we bought a slightly bigger wading pool for the boys. I felt sorry for Collin standing all by his lonesome next to the trampoline watching the other kids jump. (I know, I'm a sucker.) The new pool is 10 ft. in diameter and about 2 1/2 feet deep. The sides are too high for Cami to fall in. Shown above is Evan, decked out with swim goggles and the two inner tubes he thought necessary to keep himself afloat. We kept our little plastic 1 ft. pool for Cami. She's still too little for the big pool and would probably be overwhelmed by the boisterous splashing of her brothers in the big pool. As a result, I now sit on my lawn chair supervising the activities in two separate pools. The activity in the smaller pool is much more toned down than the activity in the larger pool.
On a side note, both boys passed their swimming lessons. The third time was the charm for Collin. He graduates to level 3, while Evan moves up to level 2. Hurray!
