As you may be able to tell from prior posts, Tigger LOVES the water. He loves swimming and bath time. We go swimming every weekend and two days a week at daycare, they have water play on the playground (which they set up with several inflatable pools).
As if that isn't enough, Papa TT and I decided to get a wading pool for our backyard (it's not really a yard - just a parking spot with a few bushes on the side). I got a great deal on a used pool on Craigslist; $20 and a good scrubbing by Papa TT and we were in business!
I've started having 'pool time' with Tigger after I pick him up from day care. It's still pretty hot at 4/5 pm and our local park isn't very shaded. This is a good activity for him, especially since Tilly can relax in her crib in the air conditioned house.
Tigger gets so excited about the water - he calls it 'da wa' (his version of 'the water'). He knows it's swim time when I put his swim diaper on. Here he is running to the back door after I just changed him:
We got outside and I put him in the pool. He looks kind of sad - where's the water?!?!
There it is!
Fun, fun!

I still hear him in my sleep! What a very smart idea in this heat. Give both kids a big kiss from Grandma...
