A quick note

Today was a good day.  Nothing exciting, but a good day.  Some errands in the morning, a nice long nap (I got to a yoga class and got to relax during his nap it was so long) and then some swim time in the afternoon.

Our favorite story: We were playing in the pool, with a foam water squirter we bought today (more about that later).  Carmen was getting squirted by Jayden.  Jasmine was having all kinds of fun running along the side of the pool.  She ran up to the side where Carmen was, barked, slipped and fell right in the pool.  It was amazing.  I was outside the fence at the time, trying to get her some non-chlorinated water to drink, so we are lucky Carmen was right next to her and that Jayden didn't try to jump in at that time.  Carmen turned around, saw Jasmine's head come up above water, he grabbed her and got her back onto the pool deck.  Needless to say she was traumatized.  And by traumatized, I mean she ran around in circles, her adrenaline obviously going and then rolled around in the grass:

Jasmine's look of "what the HECK just happened to me?!??"

Trying to use the grass to dry her off.  It only sort of worked.


So, about those water squirters.  We went into a pool supply store to get something else - goggles for Jayden that actually work instead of my $5 Toys R Us goggles - and ended up getting other things we didn't need.  Like a foam water gun.  But that actually turned out to be an awesome purchase.  If you ever come swimming with us and you don't want to get your hair wet - you're pretty much out of luck.

This is probably one of my favorite pictures ever:
