I was a total water bug when I was a kid and even to this day, I love swimming so I just knew that my own kids would love it. I mean, they would have to since it’s built into our DNA, right? Eh.. Not so!

Zoey loved playing with her water table but when it came to small pools or sprinklers, she was NOT a fan. In May we were staying in a hotel out of town and I took her into the hotel swimming pool in a little inflatable baby floatie device thingy and, well, that experience was nothing short of a total DISASTER. Lots of crying and flipping out.

So, it is to my delight that my daughter is slowly coming around to This Water Stuff. We have a few Spraygrounds/Splash Pads here and I finally took her to one and.. well.. she loves it!

Sprinklers and sunshine and popsicles and chubby baby thighs in cute little swimsuits… Love summer time!
