Memorial Day was forecast to be like 90 degrees-- so we inflated the pool and set it up in the morning to allow the water time to warm up a bit. Jeremiah was ready to play!
"Come on, where's the water?!?!"
He played in the pool a bit that afternoon.
Trying to drink the water-- just like in the bath tub!
But now, apparently the excitement of the new pool has quickly worn off. This afternoon after J's nap, I got him all changed into his swim stuff and slathered with sunscreen....
...and the pool sat empty.
Jeremiah is MUCH too busy to sit in the pool and would MUCH rather be out doing this:
Every once in a while he does venture back over to the pool to check it out and splash a bit.
But then it's right back to the trucks.
Oh well. We bought the pool on sale, and it does make for a nice place to put my feet while I'm sitting out in the sun watching Jeremiah play trucks.
He's a cool dude no matter what! :)
In other news, we had sweet corn for the first time on Memorial Day! It was definitely not late-summer-bought-from-a-farm-stand corn, but it was still pretty tasty. I couldn't wait to get a picture of Jeremiah chowing down on his first ear of corn!
But.... he refused to even TRY it and spent the majority of the time squeezing it with all his might (trying to get the corn kernels off? Who knows!). We'll make him into a sweet corn loving Iowa boy before this summer is over!
So does this mean I won't have to play lifeguard next week? If it's as hot as it was here yesterday, I'll be looking for a place to cool my feet. :)
