When the pool finally opened at 5:00 this evening, we were back at the gym, ready to jump in.
We splished and splashed and slid the night away. The kids wanted to stay until closing time at 9:00, but I dragged them away. I felt bad that we didn't wait for Seth to get home to swim, but we had already waited all day. So, we ventured home at 7:30 and picked him up to head off to Dairy Queen.
I brought the camera but only got a few shots since I was trying to keep an eye on three different kiddos. Luckily in the pool we were in, the water does not get any deeper than 3 1/2 feet, so Alex and Alyssa can reach. I still get a little stressed out trying to make sure I can see all three of them all the time, but it wasn't too crowded and we had a great time. All is forgiven Recplex.
Chloe is usually a little wimpy when we go swimming. Last week she stuck to the baby slide, but this week she went down the medium sized tube slide about 50 times and climbed around in tunnels with waterfalls in front of them. She is not tall enough for the big slide, but it looks like she has finally joined her siblings as a little fish. Hooray!

Yay!!!! Tubes are so fun for kids. I think posting movies on blogs is like one of the greatest miracles ever! Having come from a pre-computer generation, I just am delighted with getting to share your lives so easily. That picture of Chloe in the tube, by the way, looks so much like Alyssa I had to compare swimsuits to make sure it really was Chloe. She is changing all the time, isn't she? (Aren't they all?)
Hope this is the first of many fun outings to the pool this spring.
Looks like it's time for us to get out there and go to The Dells with you guys!
Haha..."splishin' accomplished," that is good!
Oh, this looked like a lot of fun, and it looks completely uncrowded! Everything in California is packed!
I make my kids wear water wings/water muscles because I'm worried about drowning too. Just a little air on their arms makes me feel better, but sometimes places like that won't let you have those. GLAD you got to enjoy spring break, you should have told them you'd be the life guard.
Glad to see you guys putting your membership to use. I want to try to go swimming this Friday night. We are swamped by mid week and never can seem to make it for the Wed open swim.
Are you workin' out there yet? Let's try to plan a time to go together this week sometime. I'm serious!!!
