Family Day: Making Splashes!

Today we've had an amazing family day. Ryan has been super busy and worked for about two straight weeks in a row so today was a nice break for him to finally get to spend some fun family time with us! We started off our day with a visit to Starbucks followed by a quick stop at Target. (Sadly, we are officially out of our Target gift cards that we received as baby shower gifts. Bummer.) We came home, Eva napped, we ate lunch and then headed to..... the pool!!!!!

I love the pool. I could spend the entire summer in the pool. It is vitally important that Eva learn to enjoy it as well. We've had summer weather for months now and people started swimming in the pool back in March so I figured today was warm enough for us to at least dip our toes in. We lathered on the sunscreen and suited up. I love Eva's swimsuit!

She wasn't quite sure at first. She loves water in the bathtub but the pool is obviously bigger and colder. The water was cool but not bad. We kept her in the tiny baby end for now since the water is very shallow and therefore warmer.

Eva was interested in all of the water sounds including the fountain. I'm sure within the coming weeks she'll be able to venture out into the big pool with her baby float. I can just lay on my big float beside her right? Haha, JUST KIDDING. I plan on being extra, extra safe with her when it comes to being in or near any water. She's my most precious baby so safety always comes first.

We played for about 10 minutes and then it was time to head back inside for her afternoon nap. Ryan was so nice and stayed inside with her while I went back to the pool by myself. 30 minutes of alone time in a tropical paradise? It was amazing. I have the best husband in the world.

PS. It is exactly one month until Hawaiian Falls opens. Getting excited...
