It's a Splash!



We knew Abby was a water baby but when her Grandma and Papa visited recently and bought her a tiny pool, the splashing had never been so fierce. We throw the pool out on the grass in the morning and fill 'er up -- by late afternoon it's like a bathtub in there.



She likes to sit in it when she's dry, after her bath on warm summery nights with no water in sight...




She loves to sit with her back to the sun (and her scar out in the open! shoot! haven't gotten that spf 50 swim shirt yet), splash like crazy and then crawl in and out... in and out. Many days she likes to suck water out of the nerf balls (gross).






And when we tell her it's time to get out, we get a look kinda like this (i'm so glad she can't talk when she gives me a look like this. Whatever she might say wouldn't be good)...


And thanks to my friend Hillary for making me remember how important it is to count my "everyday" blessings. From now on, I'm ripping off an idea she's using and counting them right here, for all to see.

1. sunny days
2. birthday cake even when you're on a diet
3. naps

unfortunately, it's a diet not so much for weight loss as it is for health. :) totally unfun. :) hope to see you soon!
