Last Pool Day

Our pool is open the two weekends after Labor Day and I was hoping it would have been warmer for some pool time. With that said we have all enjoyed the cooler weather. Labor Day was cool so we didn't go and today was not that hot but it was sunny and our last chance to go this season. So off we went. The boys lasted almost an hour before getting to cold. We all had fun and not surprised but had the pool pretty much to ourselves. Two of Owen's friends came as well. I wanted to note how different both kids are in the pool after just these couple months. Owen is very comfortable in the water and enjoys practicing his swimming, diving under water, and of course general pool play. But in the past couple weeks he has finally started to jump off the side. Aiden is finally having fun playing in the big pool and is a little too comfortable. He insists on climbing down the ladder himself or turning around and scooting into water he can't touch at. Which means I am on guard the whole time and ready to catch him. He enjoys playing and walking on the stairs and loves to jump from the side and has just started to try to swim, kicks his feet and splashes his arms.
