In the pool........

Paddling pool that is. Its been so hot and the little kids love to get wet and so....at the risk of getting mud puddles all over, I bought a 7 dollar pool and a sprinkler for them to play in. Well that was a huge success. 102_0682 The worst thing is that the noise volume is so incredible that I would think they can be heard in Alaska. Reina has the decibel level of a freight train. As you see she can put her full body into it. 102_0684 The problem is that little girls like to scream and squeal. Well Reina is 6 and Tristen is 2 1/2 and he copies everything she does. So I have a screeching screaming little boy. I never had this problem with my own boys because even though Laura was older than them, she was a Tom boy not a girly girl. Reina is a girly girl with the giggles and the Hello Kitty thing and all that. 102_0680 I despair if Tristen does not get some male companions soon (giggle)

My two used to love the paddling pool when they were little. Often they would add so many toys there was hardly any room for them. It's nice that the simple things can bring so much pleasure. Perhaps you need to invest in some earplugs ;)
