Keeley's first swim!

Since Luken isn't too wild about the spraypark yet, we thought we'd head over to our neighborhood pool for some fun, and introduce Keeley to swimming!

Keeley and Daddy, enjoying the water:


Luken, splashing around in the shallow area:


Hi, Mom!


Hmmm... those big kids are having some fun out there...


Wheee!


More splashing!


Hmmm, is it drinkable?


Nope, we didn't forget to bring the trusty thumb!


Walking around in the water:


Having fun:

Beautiful girl! (Saggy swimsuit, tee hee!)


A boy and his Daddy...


Yep, you are seeing correctly! Standing all by herself!


I just thought this was a sweet moment...

A girl of many hats!

As any younger sibling does, Keeley covets Luken's possessions. Here she is being ridiculously cute in Luken's hat:









A few minutes later, playing with his Fire Hat!








And a cute picture of Luken, in his "Sportacus" goggles! (I bought them for the pool and bath, but he was just playin' around with them!

Spraypark success!!

Finally, success! We met a few friends at the spraypark today for some fun in the sun!

Here's a common Luken-face. He wasn't so sure about the water, and mostly wanted to play in the adjacent park.


Both kiddos were kind of clingy for a while, so I wasn't able to take many pics. After a while it was time for some lunch, and Luken was feeling sweet and generous, and fed some of his apple to Keeley! :)





Silly Keeley!


Luken, REALLY wanting to swing.


I mean REALLY REALLY REALLY! LOL!


Keeley, surveying the scene...


Luken finally worked up enough nerve to actually TOUCH the water! Woo hoo!


Keeley's turn!








Just a neat pic of a friend's son's hand:





Keeley, doing more investigating:


Making the rounds...


"OK, now I'm pissed!"


"Ahhhh.... that's better!"
Since Luken didn't get wet at all, and I didn't manage to strip Keeley down to her bathing suit before SHE got wet, I put her in Luken's dry shirt! :D
On a side note, in this picture, I think you can REALLY see that Keeley has her Daddy's mouth! :)
All in all, a really fun outing! We will definitely go back, and hopefully by summer's end, Luken will get fully involved in the water fun!
