Summer Fun

Even though summer has just started we have already had a lot of fun. Marianne tried to enjoy the hot weather by getting in our neighbors baby pool but she hated it and screamed to get out. So when my dad suggested we go swimming in the Chapin Presbyterian Church office pool we were nervous about how it would go. She loved it! I think she likes the warmer water and the fact that she gets held in the big pool.

Chris slowly eased Marianne into the pool until she was comfortable and happy!

Aunt Julie makes everything fun!
Riding on a float with Grandan is relaxing!

She didn't love that I was making her try to swim...
But once she got the hang of swimming she liked it!

Abuelita got her to kick her legs and moved her arms like she knew what she was doing!

After it was all over you could see how much she enjoyed it!

After a long day of swimming it was time to take it easy. The next day we visited Mimi and Papi and had a relaxing afternoon.

Here Marianne is enjoying looking at the lake in her new chair.

The following weekend we attended a fun birthday party. There were tons of baby pools and a slip and slide for the children to enjoy in the hot sun! Once again Marianne screamed and cried when we put her in the baby pool. Instead Marianne enjoyed watching her friend, Campbell, open presents and crawling around in the yard.

Every time we tried to put her in the pool Marianne would hang on to our shirts for dear life!

Marianne didn't need to be in the pool to have fun. The bubble blower was endless entertainment and she liked to watch the big kids popping all the bubbles!
